Does that Make me Crazy?

We all go a little mad sometimes..

I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?
 

Gnarls Barkley.

I love this song, even your emotions had and echo in so much space..I find that line so profound , I remember very well the moment I lost my mind and honestly it was the most pleasant feeling I have ever had , I do not mean to say that for everyyone it is .for me it was a moment of acceptance and love .

That moment .. that you just know too much and it overwelms you and suddenly you allow yourself to be alright with the knowledge that it is more than you can make sense of , so you just lay back and float in the moment.

I have a friend who thinks herself sane and perhaps is in my opinion on the brink of insanity, Spending time with her yesterday as we walked the dirty streets of downtown L.A. where crazy is obvious.. she delighted in what she precieved to be her superior grip on life ..maybe she simply does not know enough yet?

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart
To lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember
Is thinking, I want to be like them

Ever since I was little
Ever since I was little
It looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

I am glad that I have allowed myself to be crazy and to embrace that in others , that is why I just love the lyrics to Gnarls Barkley's song . to accept a certain amount of craziness is the line that protects us from insanity.
