As I've been trying to put together some kind of coherent exposition of the work of Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz for my Advanced Logic class, I find that he and I have a very similar thought structure - if we don't organize everything in a list form, with each item assigned to a number, claims and arguments (and, in my case, just random shit) become disorganized and difficult for others to understand. That is, others who do not think in this way have a slightly more difficult time understanding than those who do. Leibniz, who was working with some very complex philosophical and logical claims, seems to have an easier time connecting everything than I do.
I wish I had something more substantial to write than this. Here's a haiku I scribbled during class the other day.
I see mundane lives;
Heavy burdens dragged in tow.
My hands are shaking.
-Me
