Something blabry bob blob:
I have a THEORY that it's easier to be emotionally detached if you have a bigger working memory. You see if you can only focus on a few things at a time they become your entire world and you get stronger feelings about them. However, if you can focus on other things at the same time you won't feel as much emotion because the other things remind you that... Uh... They remind you that there are other things, so the thing you're doing doesn't feel as important.
Of course there are moments when those who can focus on many things put all their focus on one thing and become emotionally attached, but that's not part of the theory and I don't give two fucks about it.
As for me, lately I've begun feeling more and more emotional about things, and I wonder why. Is it because I'm beginning to feel better about myself in general that I'm letting things affect me or am I just getting stupid? I hope it's the former, because that would make my life a whole lot better.
Oh, and this whole entry is just to make me feel good about myself. It helped. Thanks :D
