Mark is one of the most complex people I know. He is also one of the most eccentric people I know, but in a way that adds flavor to his personality. He seems to always be on a completely different wavelength as most people which can be a great thing adding uniqueness to his personality and room for limitless imagination....but also one of his greatest flaws, often causing him to seem to be in his own little world at the worst of times when things need to be done and causing him to use completely and totally apalling irrational thinking to view important situations and make decisions. The advise he gives seems to reflect what he learns from these mistakes, though. So, in that sense, his hugest flaw is being able to take his own advice the first time around, but he does seem to have an uncanny ability to learn everything ther is to learn from his mistakes enough to use these valuable lessons to his own self improvement and in situations in the future, atleast. The downside is that he seems to act rather self-righteous about his ability to do this at times.
Also, his irrational thinking does tend to be almost detrimental at times to his ability to function socially in society as it is...the way we all have to deal with it. He would probably come up with some ridiculous and naive story about how conforming to "reality" or "everyday media influenced society" is the poison that deters us from seeking out true reason to be on "this wonderful earth" or something of that nature, but he only hurts himself in insisting to think this way, whether it actually be because he is onto something that is beyond what the average person is able to comprehend or perhaps it is just random psy-babble from another lost cause who refuses to get his act together. That is the part I could not tell you about him, but I have a feeling he either knows or is coming closer to knowing in every instant. Or so he proffesses. Whether to know to take him seriously or not is impossible at times, though, because he keeps so much to himself that it is impossible to even imagine what he could possibly be thinking at any given moment. I wonder if he knows this? Some of his friends seem to disagree with me slightly on this, though. At any rate, I think not being able to know what's going on in his mind makes him creepy in a way and untrustworthy, even though I am told by others that he is the kindest and gentlest and most faithful friend they have ever known more or less. I suppose he does seem honest, but if he is so honest, why does he keep so much inside? Well, with an artistic mind like his I can only hope for the best for him. I just wish he would start thinking rationally, but I know that is impossible due to the delicate situation he seems to have put himself in...balancing his happiness on the pursuit of dreams. I can only hope they are not JUST dreams for him and he has the will to make them reality. Or rather, the ability. Good luck to that punk.
Well, that was indeed fun and interesting. I think I might do another one later, even
