anw i nid to answer stef's question... why think? thinking builds the whole foundation of your life. what u think is what u will do. ur mentality determines ur mental stregth and endurance. ur beliefs determine ur actions. your beliefs determine if u are HAPPY. if u keep thinking, "happy or sad, we still hav to go tru life" of course u would make an effort to be more cheerful. if u keep telling urself "i shall control my emotions" u will make an effort not to explode in temper and always keep ur cool. just like tennis stef, u train urself, u practice ur swinging, shots, u train ur fitness, for the goal of improving ur skill. character can be improved too. it takes thinking, decisions in life, going through lessons in life. u can choose if u want to go for extra training, and treat ur tennis training very seriosly, to improve. the same way, u can take what ever life throws at u and treat it as a lesson. whether u want to learn from it or not depends on u. haha im not using any christian principles in explaining dis, just normal zuo ren de dao li!
thinking doesnt make u confused n unhappy. it is because i think,such that i feel so secure and so happy in things i do. my nature is not very cheerful, but becasue i think and thus noe why am i doing things, i can be joyful so much of the time. thinking lets u feel. u can feel sooo much by simply thinking.. believing, reflecting on your relationships, acheivements, daily life. its no suprize u dont understand why i "philosophize" so much, i was like u. im not saying its wrong not to think, but its fantastic if u hav foundation to your beliefs and you can live by them.
actually, why u say thinking makes ppl confused and unhappy, it alls comes down to wad are you believe in, critically thinking about. i thought all dis was a load of crap last year when my teacher told it to me, until i experienced it for myself. all the best (:
