" what do you do when the inequalities of the entire universe finds themselves sitting squarely upon your shoulders? "

---

your boss is yelling at you; it sounds like a mother scolding you as a six year-old.

you start to realize that your heart is racing.

the blood is rushing to your face and you feel like your brain is going to explode; soon enough there is going to be a considerably odd popping noise, and your friends will find you lying on the floor peaceful as a baby lamb.

all of your muscles flex with a taut tension(much like that of a father finding you underneath his daughter's bed in nothing but a stuffed animal to cover yourself...for shame...that kind of tension) and you can feel your moral sense of social awareness crossing the threshold.

what do you do then really?

take a breather? run around in a circle until nothing matters? yell at everyone until you pass out? climb up a tree and freefall the 12 feet to the ground?

or do you sit quietly at take this verbal punishment, and nod and say nothing at all, and resume the status quo?

or do you do the work, tune out, and ask questions at random? i do.

like this:

if someone invented a machine or device, or has a magic stone which has within its powers, the ability to stop time...when you have stopped time and everything in the known univers ceases to a halt; nothing breathes, moves, grows, dies, sleeps, thinks, and everything else you need the concept of passing time to accomplish, what is the weather going to be like?

i mean, there is nothing moving. and if nothing is moving, how does the air go into your lungs? and what about this magical something allows you to exist out of this stopped time moment? who said you are exempt from being a part of this frozen moment?

being frustrated and mad is really bad for the emotional part of your body, but it's for some reason really good for daydreaming and question-asking.

to state an old saying: "don't worry, cry yourself and your big head to sleep."
