On cognitive dissonance
Hey
I’m thinking
Thinking
Do you know?
Like this; it’s like this exactly:
It’s been nagging at my brain:
There was a can of worms opened up inside of my brain — a swarm of realisations — like they are symbolising something serious like cognitive dissonance — wreaking havoc — as they shine a new worm light on everything.
And it’s ugly !
But even so, they try to crawl back into the jar, to seal themselves from me, because they hurt up there. They hurt me, and so I may subconsciously be compelling them to crawl back,
Like there’s a blind spot where the jar is: that’s where they crawl.
But I’ve written it all down!!
Even so, it’s like when I read the things I’ve written, it’s like the realisation comes anew…
Why is it like that? Somethings not right up there!
I wish to mend my inner construct, but I can’t as long as these worms of wisdom are there in the crowded darkness in their jar; I do not want to regress into my former shape, when this realisation cost me so much, do you know?
I will mend, it will be wabi sabi.
This is the hill I will die on.
