It was not cumbersome or heavy

I feel like I am talking about my brother.. rim shot.

I was thinking about how good our intuition is vs. trying to understand things. But, time and time again, people have backed down from a "hunch" because they feared being labeled Naïve or seeing through rose colored glasses. But, at what expense do we give up our intuition for logic.

A short story works best to explain it. I used to write a lot of music  and it was very good (He shall know his ways as if born to them - said regarding Paul's Stilsuit on Dune). but, then as I started taking classes, and saw that I was actually following all sort of harmonic rules and perfect tertiary or Sonata Allegro forms. My compositions got much worse because trying to follow such rules on purpose was so hard. I was told that was why I was taught to do so. like yesterday on a movie I heard a guy explain how the words in his language for "King" and "fool" were structurely the same. one started with a certain sound which was the same sound that starts the word "thought" the other started with the word for emotion or heart, and the guy said knowing that taught him that a king leads with his head and his heart follows whereas a fool leads with his heart and his head follows. Even typing that I still think the whole thing is a nice little logic puzzle or the sort of thing a thinker would say.  Point was I was eliminated from contributing great works because I could not create them the way I was taught and the way intuition works is a use it or loose it type thing.

Streamlining to be able to achieve greater intellect includes getting rid of intuition. But I am realizing it does not actually weigh one down anyhow. And Wisdom is far more desirable anyhow which would require a liberal donation of logic and intuition.

sadly I realized that to suspend my reality as I often did for the sake of entertainment y reality is sort of warped and not accurate anymore. The way I could remedy it is to go on a media diet, which I do not even think I could enforce for myself.... My son truly needs me right now, I can not keep typing and listen to him at the same time, so, the end.
