Ying Yang Highway

 Reflecting on characters, qualities and feedback a major theme that comes to mind is: Intense. The intensity of presence, the intensity of thought and the intensity of speed. Zoom zoom goes the race car. I have been told that certain people can take up a lot of space while others bear witness as the wallflowers of their surroundings. One is sensing their environment from an observational standpoint while the other jumps in, wading in, the experience that already is. Whose to say which experience is more beneficial. 
 I feel that if you had too much of one and not enough of the other balance would be lost and the appreciation of either quality could turn into resentment and possibly boredom. In boredom we are naturally driven towards some sort of creative expression to move forward and explore the differences that are so essential to external and internal discovery. 
 The more we grasp about ourselves the more the world makes sense. The more we know about intention the more we can understand motivation and the more that motivates us our purpose is identified. I wonder if discovering a place of silence and solitude premises a space of elevated internal conflict; whereas the desire to experience chaos may forcefully quiet the internal chatter. How backwards and strange the manifestations of reality can be. 
 Maybe those who say nothing have a continuous rambling in their mind and have not decided where or how to expel the thoughts that linger; while those that babble on are lost in the rhythm and vibration of sound seeking an extreme escape from the mouth... forever questioning which way is the "right" way.
 For those that want to dance in the land of intensity.. who want to experience the build up of the groove only to get thrown with the beat of madness... take out those glow sticks and fist pump to the air like there is no tomorrow. Sweat the bullshit away and remember that all the distinctly different and beautiful worlds can live together thriving in the opposite of the other. Life is an interesting array of wonder; No two stories are the same and whatever magic you lay down someone out there will pick up, stoked that they have found the winning ticket!
