Psychoanalyzing myself...

I had an epiphany the other day. I was thinking about something I posted a while back, when I started this blog, the one where I wondered whether some people think more than others etc. While I was thinking about this I realized something. I don't JUST over think everything I'm about to say or do, but I continue to think about it after I said or did it. Basically I'm psychoanalyzing my own actions...

I don't think I over analyze other people's motivations and stuff. Sure I wonder about why they do and say certain things, but I won't break my back trying to figure it out.

My own motivations, however, is a whole different story. I think I know myself better than most people know themselves, because I tend to question my own actions, and even thoughts. If a strange thought pops into my head I will try my best to figure out where it came from, and I'll probably spend more time on it than most people would...In short, I'm constantly trying to figure myself out...and it's a work in progress...

I think this is why I feel like I'm thinking more than other people...I think it's because I question everything I do, feel, say or think...

I have yet to figure out why I feel the need to psychoanalyze myself, but if I have another epiphany I will let you know.

Hating

Hating on celebrities has become almost like a sport. Everyone is trying to outdo the other by leaving the most hateful comments on a social network. Now I'm not judging, because I know I've done it too. But when you think about why you do it you realize it makes you kind of pathetic. The main reason people like seeing famous people mess up is because it makes them...or us, feel better about ourselves. We feel 'well at least I'm not as bad as so and so...'.

When someone in the music business, whos music I really like, does something really stupid (or even more than one thing) it doesn't have any impact on the quality of the music. If I like a song by a person I really don't like, then I'm going to listen to it. Bad/annoying/stupid people can in fact make good music, so what do I care what they're doing? If it's a good song then what does it matter what the person singing is doing in their PERSONAL lives?

I feel like movie actors/actresses get a lot less hate than say musicians or TV actors. I don't really understand why this is....But just because someone who plays in my favorite movie does something I don't like, it's not going to make we hate the movie.

Also, I try my very best to ignore what a person did and focus on the why they did it. If they have a good reason, or even a bad reason, then how can we blame them? I don't like the way people place celebrities on pedestals and expect them to do everything right, they're only human, they also make mistakes. Some more than others, but still. I know this post isn't going to make people stop hating, but I just wanted to get my opinion out there.

Don't hate the player people, hate the cheating ;)
