That may be overthought, but I don't think so. I think it is appropriate in the context of the discussion. If you want to talk about the weather, we can do that too.

Lol, Kioma. Thank you for bringing lightness to the discussion.
For when I say overthinking, mean making it a burden of sorts.

Which brings the mind to these thoughts.
To allow the mind to wander in the wonder and possibilities.
If humans never did this, then what would we have, where would we be?
All this would hold very little meaning and what it brings would echo hollow, IMO.

Not knowing can also be liberating in the sense that I don't have to pressure myself to know, but can still enjoy what life may bring.

Is a strangers' smile less bright then that of a friend? Just playing with a thought here.

I enjoy the discussions here and get great insight and view points that help me clear the air a bit in me.

The weather has its stories to tell as well.
