The (non)spotless mind

I think a lot. I have a lot of great thoughts. Unfortunately I am always thinking. I always have so much on my mind. Whether it is something I am trying to remember or something I am trying to figure out. Something is always there. So when I need to think about something it has to compete with all these other unfinished thoughts. I wish I could simply sit down and finishing thinking all these thoughts, but it is not that simple. The questions and problems that loom in my mind never seem to leave, no matter how much I think about them. No matter how many times I write them down or talk about them. They are always there. I do not even want to forget them. I wish I did. They are like those unanswerable questions. I know I can not answer them, because it is impossible, but I also know it is impossible for me to stop trying. I like the questions most of the time, though, they make me feel intelligent, I do not think that is the word I am looking for. To bad I never think of questions I can answer.
