Pseudo-Autobiography

Daniel Levinson

 

“Crazy to Control”

 

 

There is space enough in Daniel’s mind for the two of us. I can not detail the exact characteristics which separate our individual mentalities, yet, I feel quietly distinct from the Daniel I grew up with. Herein lies a split in the relationship; I live according to the seasons while Daniel try’s to control them. I have been called crazy but in a good way. When I seek to flow with the winds, he seeks to claim a sense of order. Chaos, control, confusion, these words represent our mutual bond in constant flux. With me, I have realized that inspiration drives me to new heights in this life. I believe Daniel recognizes this as his source of motivation but climbs a ladder of reason. Responding to this approach, I feel between us we divide up our daily tasks and conquer our world.

 

Within my functionality, I used to exist on the outskirts of reality, a shadow mirroring Daniel’s upbringing of soccer, friendship, and schoolwork. In recent times, I have become very handy in terms of what I can bring to the table. Daniel partners with me for many reasons. Among them I am creative, intuitive, imaginative, and free-spirited. Freedom is the centerpiece of my experience. There is no doubt in my mind that Daniel longs for my attention. Moreover, I resemble the openness that Daniel conjures in his mind. For him, an optimistic ideology carries weight over the river of influence, which in itself drifts into the future.
