Solitude and contemplation

I’m understanding the importance of having control over my frustrations at times of peril.
After all, everything seems less perilous when the perilous turbulence has been thrown. 

I am not afraid to enjoy the stress of a full life nor so naïve as to think I can without some intelligent effort. 

What is the distinction between your bodily drives and what your mind really wants? Is it only an illusion while you are young? Does the distinction deteriorate as you get older? In different situations it varies. In some situations you feel like your mind disagrees with your body. This is what holds back the theory because it is context bound and paradigm bound. 

See, how everything is so multisided! Every time I come up with an opinion, a thought, it falls down because I subsequently if not immediately, see an opposing or simply different perspective. I suppose that is a good skill to have. I suppose generalizations are not all that important if the main idea is to learn more about myself. To be able to conceptualize a situation is important for my understanding rather than creating a theory for others to relate to, I can create a theory for myself. 

How can I rely on what I think in a mind which occasionally catches itself pulling the wool over its own eyes?

Every piece of philosophy and theory has been dissected to uncover no greater truth than that there is no complete truth.
