Why not?

I am a person who thinks a lot.
Like really.

I don't know whether this started after I became a debater or it was in me all along.
But anyhow, I think a lot.

More often than not, for almost everything I do, everything I say, I think about it.
I do not know is it just me or does everyone do it as well.
If someone does, do tell. :)

And the questions that always come to mind whenever I think about what I did or say will be,
'Is it necessary?'
'Why am I doing this?'
'Should I say that just now?'

Not only that, being a typical third speaker, my mind ends up, naturally start to answer those questions. Trying hard to justify myself to myself.

I have a very complicated mind.

One day, I do not know what I was doing, probably pondering about this, it started to dawn on me.
You know what?
I know exactly how to answer those questions.
And the answer is,

Because I can

All the time, I try so hard, for who knows what reason, to justify myself again and again.
And it can get really frustrating at times.
I do wonder at times why on earth do I have such a complex mind.
Why can't I just not care and take things as it is?

So yea. It hit me one day.

'Why?'

I'll tell you why.

It's because I can.

So next time, I try to care less, of course it's not something I can do after a moment of epiphany. But I'm trying. :)

I don't have to have a reason for everything I do anymore.
I don't have to answer to people why do I want to do this.
I don't have to justify my acts yesterday night.
I don't have to care about what people think.

I do all those things,
Because I Can.

So to refer to what Brendon Urie sang in the song I Have Friends In Holy Spaces, 'Take a chance, take your shoes off, dance in the rain.'


Sure. Why not?



I have the sudden urge to do this right now.
