How can insanity, then, be the most beautiful song ever composed? It's not a rhetorical question. Sometimes humanism and conversation can cure the obsession, but the song is more about the universe and its mirroring of the mind than it is about the diagnosability of the mind through another, more authoritarian, normative, clinical mind. Pain breeds such a loop of thought. Healing, pleasure and joy change the loop. If a life is lacking in those things, and is wallowing in sorrow, then the loop itself might, rather than insanity, be a form of self-comforting...pacifier, anyone? But you might not be able to understand because perhaps your brain was not constructed thus - who is to say the style of thinking is superior. Is reality or fantasy real, and which is the preferable? A good post raises such questions. My hat, and brain, is off to you. And windmills, whatever they are, well, sometimes they form at birth. |
