Average house, average wife, average job,
Average kids, average religion, average mind,
These are the things that I could have had
Without schizophrenia.
I don’t think I’d desire anymore. Except above average wife, kids and religion. I’d trade below average everything for above average wife, kids and religion.
the concept of average seems very vague, subjective, and theoretical…
Just being stable is a lot more realistic and acceptable, no?
like if the average American is obese, would I have to start gaining weight?
If you can see the value in average things then you get the most out of life.
Average is like paradise from where I am.
the Aristotlean golden mean always feels out of my grasp - I try for moderation but I tend to extremes. But the golden mean is not the exact average…
