Madness
I don't think there is or there should be anything call madness. No one is mad. The madness is, there is a helluva thing called NORMAL we all can't fit in.So... If you try to be normal you are going mad and if you are being mad it's you trying to be your normal.
I think I confused mad and the normal equally enough.
Just a mad thought when the whole world is going mad.

Or..is it the other way round?
hru?
Majority is normal and minority is abnormal. Its always been the case.
With the reversed roles, actors are the same.
No one is mad. :
Every one is mad. :
No one is normal.
Normal are Mad.
Stay Safe

Au Contraire, m'dear Allora
EVERYONE'S Mad!
"Normal" is the Prevailing Psychosis in any given time & place."
True That!!
I've been in some times & places where Normal = Really whacked out, lemme tell y'all
I, of course, didn't "fit into" those times & places -- bein' an un-prevalent sort of psychotic, y'all understand.
We live in a mad insane world and those who are sensitive and who find it hard to live in noise and speed and perhaps danger [depending on if it is a busy city or a dangerous rural area ] many can't cope because of the break down in order and in community.
These people are not mad to me, they just show symptoms of anxiety and depression and don't fit in and react like most other animals.
Take care Usha.
And now one gets the 'New Normal' Apparently its turned 'mad' into 'crazy'
Normal means Typical.
So you would have to say what kind of Mad you were referring to as in, Insane, Angry, or Crazily Funny.
By Normal do you mean Sane, or Nice, Good, Happy, etc. or Not Insane?
Not to mention Madly in Love!
Not that that’s a bad thing.
The art of complexity is the reduction to simplicity, so that all can understand.
Take a chill pill, crack a beer, puff on a pipe, and then go sit in the sun and enjoy the warmth. W.
Hi Usha,
I hope every one is safe out there. Neighbor just called to say the news says masks are mandatory today. I'm not sure what all that means yet. Do we have to wear them while driving? If I wear a mask, my glasses fog up and then I will crash.
Is it possible, they have attempted to keep us in a fenced in area called "normal" to better maintain control?
Madness is one of them.
People fall through the spectrum of normal and abnormal. It is call life.
Fences and Norms. Names and Forms. All in the head. There is nothing if you can get rid of it all.
Am I confusing you more ?
If yes, that was the plan.
You are trying to confuse me right?
Glad to see you up and still kicking.
I am good. How are you and things going with your daughters?
I think you know Jata sutta. Anto jata, bahi jata. The tangle within and tangle outside. It's all a tangle. Madness is the order.
I am always live and kicking. But when I stop to think, I go mad.
I think you are as mad as I am. but good madness.
Everyone is mad. Agree, if that equals to everyone is normal.
There can't be madness. Usual self and unusual self is a better way . I think. But then what is usual. Our usual selves are influenced by society and it's norms. Our thoughts and actions are influenced by other people more than ever. We witnessed this with BLM protests.
It's a deep topic. But I don't like being serious here.
Hope you are doing good.
The confusion, the turmoil, the lack of proper insight. It's all crazy. I look at everything what is happening and ask, whaaaaat? We are supposed to be the only evolving species on earth.
Thank you very much for your comment. But please excuse my blunder as English is not my first language.
I like to learn the differences between insanity, crazy and mad.
If normal is typical, then typical of what?
Madly in love...I think if one has to feel mad to love, that's madness, not love.
Complex and simplicity. Those two words are good pointers when understanding madness.
But nothing is simple in complexity.
Okay, I will cillax.
My love and prayers for them and you, lovely lady.
Wear a mask only in crowded places. But it is not healthy to wear it for long, I heard. Stay safe, stay blessed.
Not all can unsee the roller coaster, madness and
normal and see life.
...
But people didn't keep their promise...do you get what I said
Methinks normal and mad are just terms to describe a way of thinking. The only reason why the mad are kept in asylums is because they are less than us. If they were in the majority, we would have been kept in asylums.
Are you sure we're not already there Usha
Turning into this year, a new decade, I though 2020 had a ring of significance about it in some sort of way as the year would unfold, that telling would be told....the year so far as it see it.
First we were all saving the planet, pollution, global warming, climate change
Next minute Covid had us ALL on the same page, pulling together saving each other instead
These days I can't even begin to explain the madness of it all
So far to- date, 2020 is the year for trends, or craze" as others may say.
Next time you check in, there may very well be another trend up and running
hopefully, it will be more peaceful as this now one.
