Obsessing

Have you ever noticed that the more you try NOT to think about something, the more you DO think about it? I mean seriously, the process of NOT thinking is actually a thinking process. So the art of avoiding is a truely hard one to obtain. Don't you agree? Here are some examples:

• The big blemish (be it a mole, or a zit) smack dab infront of your eyes on someones face. You do all you can to avoid staring, you don't want to be rude, but the more you try to avoid it the more you think about it until you just can't stop staring becasue after all it stared at you first!
• Secrets, good juicy gossip. You know its wrong to tell or to pass on, but you can't get it off your mind, if you could just tell it, you'd be over it, but because you shouldn't and you try to forget it so you don't think of it, but its ALL you can think about.
• Food. Whether your trying to diet or not, once you get that thought of something GOOD in your head, it does NOT leave until you have it. You GOTTA have it. Your thoughts revolve around that treat, your friends turn into dancing chicken wings and you yourself turn into fat Albert.

For most people this is the extent of it, big things they obsess about. But for me, I obsess about way more. I"m the person who can't sleep because I want to start my next day's list, I have to write things down at bed so I can sleep. I can't just think about what I'm gonna pack for my vacation in 4 weeks, I have to actually start packing. The idea of having my first baby some day, turned into a get naked and make her event. I am truley just an obsessive being. But that being said, I think we all have a little of that in us....so for now, I'm off to dream of dancing wings and try not to stare at that big ole' zit on your chin!
