The box of thoughts!

I could not think inside the box,

neither could I think outside the box,

for I could not find that box,

but then I was confronted

with the offering of a circle

that came in a box,

the very box I was seeking,

in the confusion someone said

make a triangle, so I did,

and now  I've lost the box,

 but I found my thinking.

ah, who needs boxes anyway. Forrest Gump's mother said, 'life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.' you're always confounding us and turning things upside down, forcing us to think outside of the box Andrew. now, everything is as clear as mud! Lol

Interesting. I always thought of myself as having the quality to think out of the box but now I'm not so sure lol
Surely it wouldn't matter if it is boxes or circles or an empty space whatever in which we think. Again, nice thoughts here. You're making more sense to me by the day 😛

ah who needs boxes anyway...as the moody blues sang "thinking is the best way to travel"---and you can't travel far within a box.

[JT Godin]

I'm thinking of Schrodinger... But in this case, did the box ever exist?
