Doubt & it’s failproof trust

“SEVERAL years have now elapsed since I first became aware that I had accepted, even from my youth, many false opinions for true, and that consequently what I afterward based on such principles was highly doubtful; and from that time I was convinced of the necessity of undertaking once in my life to rid myself of all the opinions I had adopted, and of commencing anew the work of building from the foundation, if I desired to establish a firm and abiding superstructure in the sciences. But as this enterprise appeared to me to be one of great magnitude, I waited until I had attained an age so mature as to leave me no hope that at any stage of life more advanced I should be better able to execute my design. On this account, I have delayed so long that I should henceforth consider I was doing wrong were I still to consume in deliberation any of the time that now remains for action. To-day, then, since I have opportunely freed my mind from all cares [and am happily disturbed by no passions], and since I am in the secure possession of leisure in a peaceable retirement, I will at length apply myself earnestly and freely to the general overthrow of all my former opinions.”

Excerpt from René Descartes: Meditation 1;

Of the things which may be brought within the sphere of the doubtful 

Ok, I’ve seem to have found a way which makes it somewhat less difficult..for the moment that is…to post what it is that I am apparently having so much trouble getting across in a clear and concise manner which can be understood when attempting to share my thoughts and ideas. which of course, is from insecurities of actually coming up with a topic that, however clear is conveyed to me or with me in my mind…somehow, fasinatingingly gets ‘lost” once the time comes for the writing down of these things. either way, this is what I’ve “found’ to help me in overcoming such phobias of expressing these thoughts with the backing of a qoute in order to take it even “further”…as a unique individual such as myself wishes to accomplish.

Alright, and there we have it, of that which we commonly doubt….ourselves, evidently. There’s always some plan, some dreeam, some idea…that a person may have at any one point in their lives…or at many continous points…and how many people actually ‘execute” their plans and goals and bulldoze through the countless obstacles that are placed in their way for the very purpose of teaching us to overcome/get the fuck over it…due to the obstacles themselves being the actual challange of life? How many people give up on themselves and let life and it’s inequalities decide their “fate” for them?…I’m no statistics major…yet I can fully assure you, that the probability is astoundly high that this is the actual case. As usual, I’ve jumped ahead a little and flew through one topic without fully explaining my position on the matter at hand…and at the same time, interestingly enough, I’ve “brilliantly” linked it directly to the larger issue that produces the first topic in question to begin with. Since my youth, I’ve always been fond of “diversity” and the mixing up of multiple viewpoints in order to more fully comphrehend such complex issues as this one here….so, without wanting to further complicate this matter of great importance with the use of vain and unesscary linguistics….The freakin point here is to have trust in yourself at all times, guide your own life and stop doubting every little thing and wonder if it is right or wrong, acceptable or not and whether it’s a truth or falsehood. How can one such as myself, with such a rich history of mental and cognitive dys-functions come to such a remark-able conclusion you ask? I have not the slightest idea of how to convey this in a manner which would produce a source of credibility which has become mandatory in this day of modern Acedemia in order to supply proof of such spectacular findings, which I as a mere citizen of little importance in comparison to the mass of geniouses that are plentiful in this day and time, who have the advangtage of owning the very source of repitable credibility, reffered to as a Master’s degree or P.h.d. Never one to purposely overstep my boundries, taken my position in life as an uncrdeible source of information due to my lowly position of merely being a human, I am unable at this point to provide a solid conclusion in regards to this matter, as life experience, which has brought me to such understandings, is without a doubt, beyond comparison, inferior to that which has been adamantly learned and memorized via a textbook of traditional, yet reliability and originality in it’s proven theories.
