"Life is a comedy for those who think...and a tragedy for those who feel."

Ever since I heard that quote, I've wondered which perspective I hold. Then I took a moment to read through some of my older entries, and just the way I perceive things in general, and I noticed that I say the phrases "kinda funny when you think about it" and "funny thing is, when you think about it..." quite often.
and yet, I still feel rather divided on the matter. i guess it just depends on the mood i'm in.
i suppose though, in general, to me, life is a comedy.

either way, I decided to google who figured that out, because I think it's a genius thing to say. (often times a person does not produce just one intelligent and telling quote you know. unfortunately it works in reverse as well...stupid people do not produce just one stupid quote.)

i came up with this, and i'm rather taken with it as well:
"The whole secret of life is to be interested in one thing profoundly and in a thousand things well."

it's funny, the first thing that came to mind when reading this quote was, of all things, love.
I think that for me, the one thing I'm supposed to be interested in profoundly is...someone else.
lately i get this feeling when i can't sleep.
I feel like something isn't right. I'm not sure how to explain it, but I just know that I'm not meant to sleep alone all my life. i'm going to find someone to wake up to.
usually I just sleep in.
