Sail away

Oh captain, my captain
Where shall we sail today?
Oh captain, my captain
Are we to wander aimlessly, and come what may?

How long will it last,
How long will you be thinking of me?
How long will it be,
Till I'm nothing but a memory?

"Oh, Nothing"

What are you thinking about?

At what point does something that means nothing turn into something important?
Are we aware when such instances are in progress and when they start taking place?

Is it invited? 

Is it expected? 

Is there a chance of being disappointed?

Do we take the risk, just to find the answers?
Or, is it because we're addicted to the emotional rush?

Are your eyes open? 

Can you perceive this?

Do you understand why I'm making you ponder?

The idle belief of don't over-think , don't give it much thought has been pushed, and pushed and pushed

to the point where there no longer is a point. 

Because now, your average thinker no longer thinks.

Those that exercise the mind to destructive extremes feel solitary in their over-thought.

And those that don't think at all fit in with all the idle minds that exist.

Now, is this mindset/belief/lifestyle what triggers the lack of common sense?

Because for the extreme thinkers, common sense is obviously no longer common.

Majority of people no longer think unless the thought process is required to better their self-imploring success to strive and survive in civilization.
