Musings of a compulsive over thinker
I've been told many times not to overthink.. But, whenever I start to think or to analyse.. my over-enthusiastic brain brings out a lot of stuff... from its many folds and pours it all upon me.. Memories, sensations... Images, smells,sounds,tunes,words .. Compelling me to go through it all.. Not that I never tried to control the information overflow... Often I tried to put away seemingly unimportant stuff.. But, those were unwieldy, fragile and leaky; leaving traces as they move... making it even more chaotic.. Uncontrollable and messy -- perhaps that's how the brain is meant to be.. With all its wrinkles and creases, crevices and folds.. Bringing order is never easy if not impossible.. The compulsive overthinker has to live with it..
