That's the way I currently feel. I feel like nothing I do can be quite accurate enough, until I tweak it to the point that I am sick of the subject. I'm obsessive to the point of mental perfection (perfect in my own head and perfect for the extent of my own purposes) and once it's achieved I throw it out, toss it to the wayside in attempts to perfect the next thing to come along. Perhaps this is why I never finish a thing, once I get it right in my head, then I don't necessarily need the physical results of it. Yes, I am perfectly aware of how strange I am.
So it's January the 16th. My 101 in 1001 list was supposed to be put up two days ago along with pictures of my book. I had it physically perfect... for someone else. As I was working on the post I came to the realization that my list, even the fact that it was sub-categorized wasn't true to myself. It was to perfect, it didn't have a raw edge for me to sit and tweak. So I scrapped that project. I've made a new list. One that has helped me realize that my while the workings of my brain may seem inadequate to others, I am quite alright with it. It has got me this far in life, and I learn more about myself in a week than some do in a lifetime.
I am almost done with the book that I am making for this list. It has a completely different feel. I have also slightly broken the rules. There are still some items that I have listed because I would like to from those habits, but a lot of the items are things that I just want to do. There isn't anything very specific about most of the list now, there are just a but load of items that came to me in my moment of clarity.
So expect it up sometime this coming week. Late this coming week at the latest. But then again, I don't want to define that. I kind of don't want to define anything because ''for my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.'' Thank you Mr. Vincent Van Gogh. From reading many of his quotes, I have come to admire him way more than ever before, because I found a kindred spirit. Only I think I am going to keep my ear thank you very much, it will come in handy for completing some of my list items...
