Octagons... flashing red signs ...and stops...

Its funny how you get yourself stuck in a rut sometimes... a routine... a pattern... whether it be in the places u go.... the people u talk to... or the stuff u take in... Patterns rule all... and ignorant as we are ….as humans... every time we embark on something new we think this time is different... this is the one that doesn't fit the mould... like the mould is a bad thing to begin with... maybe we focus to much about breaking the mould that we never take full advantage of it… what if we were to better understand our patterns and pitfalls and work around them... learn from our mistakes so to speak... a cliché!you're exposed to a gazillion different situations and people every day but if u look closely I’m sure you'll find that u react to certain categories of people a certain way... and to other happenings a different way....It especially sucks when you know you're falling into a pattern and can't do anything to get yourself out of it... u think kleptos know they're collecting junk when they pick up that random object off of someone else’s desk? you think compulsive cheaters, know they're going to do it again no matter how much they swear they won’t? you think that silly girls falling in love with the wrong guys see how wrong they are for them? the answer to all those question is yes... except the problem is... all those people... they can't stop themselves from being “the morally incorrect”... all the things they once proclaimed they'd never be...then the world goes round... time passes by and low and behold they're in the exact predicament they swore they'd never be in... It almost seems as though... life would be so much easier if u could carry around a little video machine to play back all the times u did what u you knew you'd feel like crap for doing later.... little post it notes in pretty little colors that catch you eye when you're about to enter another pitfall... neon blinking lights that say... stop you moron... its happening again! save yourself the shit... save u save YOU… a spin on the save me save u..think with your BRAIN and not your prejudice .. your libido...you're greed.. your heart... your hunger ... your conscience or your avarice....Stop dead in your tracks and say…I’ve done that one to many times.... I wont do that again! I know what those octagons flashing read lights and signs mean…. STOP!
