Monolog(ue) – I

You’re sitting in front of a computer screen, like yesterday, the day-before – like so many days before. So, what’s changed? Has anything really changed? Or did anything had to change anyway? And why is ‘change’ something vital? Why not stick to some plain ‘routine’? Yes, you know… like begin-1-2-3-4-repeat, like a programming loop. Routine is bad? Hmmm… and why is it so? When was the last time you didn’t have your favorite cup of coffee in the morning? When was the last time that you didn’t obediently perform the same series of actions when waking up, with the exact order – like get-up, put your glasses on, wash your face, brush your teeth? When was the last time that a phone call, breaking your daily morning routine, made the rest of your day a living hell? So you’re getting my point.

Yes, you’re sitting in front of a computer screen, YES like yesterday, YES like so many yesterday-s. But this is not something necessarily bad. The question is : is this something good? OR let me rephrase : even if A is your favourite thing in this world, would a daily dose of A still be pleasurable after 1-2-3-…-infinite repetitions? Will the healing power of the element A start wearing out at some point? Maybe yes, maybe not. You know, it’s one of those things you know not until you do know. So, let’s try a workaround : what about minimising the dosage of element A? Or like splitting it in less days? Would that guarantee a more long-term effect? Maybe yes, maybe not. But can you prove me that I’m not going to waste a proven maximum power of A, by trying – with uncertain effects – to prolong its duration?

Anyway, after all, you’re JUST sitting in front of a computer screen, JUST like yesterday, JUST like so many days before. No big deal. Deal with it.
