These are four states with progressively lower activity patterns. They are also a reflection of health. I’m sick since two days and as i get progressively sicker (it started with dizziness and feeling of absence and slight headache, progressing to fever, slight freezing, more headache, sore throat, coughing, sneezing) it parallels these activity levels.
When i’m fit (both mentally and bodily) i tend to create. If i’m not that fit, usually burnout from the day and not wanting to actively create something i turn to interactive media – typically games. When i’m getting sleepy and/or sick i don’t even want to interact and just consume one TV Show after another, sleeping in between.
Not sure why i’m posting this, it seems rather obvious. What i’m thinking is just that if you’re a person who rarely interacts (not necessarily playing games), let alone not being creative, you can’t be feeling “whole”. So, stop watching TV and create something. It doesn’t necessarily mean art, or anything even remotely useful, really. I think “re-creating” your living space counts, too. And that’s just a pun i threw in to upset my girlfriend.
Back to Fringe … somehow not as good as X-Files, Lost or Dexter but at least it’s new and not bad either. Just right for my mind right now and doesn’t really matter if i fall asleep while watching.
