How do you cope with this strange contradiction? Being impulsive and whimsical yet deliberate and cautious? I find this to be a difficult concept to sort out in my mind. By nature, I like to do whatever moves me at the time, as the mood arises. When the calling calls, I want to get up and act without thinking. You know? But at the same time, I might sit there and think about it, over analyze it, and then I just feel stuck and unhappy. This is a constant push-pull fight I have with myself every day. What to do? What not to do? When your motives are pure and good, there's no question that you can be whimsical and impulsive and have no problems. But what if your impulses point you in a direction of danger or potential harm? It's hard being both impulsive and cautious at the same time. Wanting to always do good and satisfy my many moods yet having to censor myself from doing anything too mischievous. Like the proverbial devil and angel on one's shoulder.
