Just Chill Sometimes

Life can be so strange sometimes. Suddenly I'm a practical thinker and a realist, when just years prior my head was in the clouds and I was scolded to plant my feet back on earth lest I fly away and be seen no more. But why in the same life-time can one change so drastically, from one extreme to another?
Seeing this happen to someone else is interesting and actually quite fun, so long as it's not your best friend or lover. But to experience it happening to yourself is something else. I'm not just talking about a slight change. I'm talking about a change to a completely different way of thinking.
I guess I'm seeing more that life cannot be put in a box. A human cannot possibly understand everything that happens. And this means that deep thinkers, like me, are not always in good company, because life then is not always seen as a friend, or as someone you know and understand, but as someone your personality constantly has friction with, but that you have to live with.
It can be likened to a marriage, or a strong relationship, I guess. You're constantly trying to understand each other so that you can live peaceably and to save unnecessary conflict, but both sexes were made different, and what's more is that opposites usually attract, so chances are that you are together with someone you will never fully understand.
So that's what I finally concluded like 2 years ago, that up until then I thought it was necessary for me to understand life in order to live peaceably with it. But I learned that I never will, and so I need to accept the life that I've been given, stop thinking so deep, and chill sometimes.
