i agree that quiet time alone with our thoughts is good, my point is that too many people spend too much time doing it. You have to admit that it is a bit selfish, especially if you are with somebody or have a family.

I'm really bad with authors names but I often consider these two quotations.


A life unexamined is not worth living

and

The mass of men live lives of quiet desperation.

i'm prone to depression, i know the danger of thinking yourself to the point of 'paraylysis by analysis'.

Too much trying to count how many angels can dance on the end of a pin, too much time spent contemplating your belly button is not healthy.

But people who never think are also pretty shallow and simple.
I like people who are moody and thoughtful but it's a harder way to go through life.
