Along with short-term memory loss (for fear of repeating myself, which I often do), I tend to use analogies to explain myself. I like that to a puzzle where I’m the only person seeing the image on the top. All the pieces are in the box, except for the corners and straight edges that have been placed to form the base of my main company.
My friend’s father first diagnosed me with a ‘grasshopper mind’ in the late 70’s, I laughed when he mentioned it, not fully understanding what he meant. So far that is.
On the road to self-discovery is a daunting task for someone with a grasshopper mind, especially a deep thinker like myself, my friend Ted used to say to me, “Why do you have to go so deep on the surface.” Well, again to use an analogy, I like that about a pearl digger, looking for that elusive gem of wisdom. Oh! I have come up with many empty shells.
One of my ex-wives used to call me ‘Arfa’. I have had 2 and a half. She used to start a company full of enthusiasm, armed with the knowledge that she could complete the task at hand. I feel a song coming on.
“Sorries I have a few.”
Where is the blame placed for this disease of the mind? Could it be from a young age when he grew up impoverished during the 1950s and was educated by criminally insane hiding behind the disguise of high school education? Some of which saw fit to hit the info on you with the ‘Cane’ or Coco the Clowns discarded size eleven and eight slipper or the fact that jobs in those days were 2 cents. You should know that I’ve had more hot dinners than most people. More of a ‘Jack the Lad’ than a ‘Jack of all Trades’.
Basically I feel like everything is based on one’s temperament. The most erudite of you will already know yours, because when I discovered mine, more recently, without pigeonholing myself, I discovered my true vocation. I am not a God fearing man and I am not afraid of the Devil either, just noticeable. So it’s fair to say, for you, my avid reader, it’s discovering the benefits for you.
