Commentary On- Notes To Myself Essay, Research Paper

Notes to Myself

Sometimes mankind has to ask the question ?what is it that makes up the actions

and determines the type of interaction that we display when around other people?? Notes

to Myself is the contemporary world?s way of questioning the value of putting on facades.

The novel also questions things we know as ?trivial? such as watching a cat sleep on our

belly or staring at clouds in the sky. The author used an interesting form for writing his

collection, omitting page numbers and leaving no indication as to what subject the reader

should expect to be encountering upon reading sections.

His views are interesting to say the least. Focusing on self meditation and self

reliance, he proceeds to describe human interaction and what he really is thinking when

exposed to different situations. For instance, he describes a conversation with a young

lady in which she wanted to ?just be friends? while he being ?male? can do nothing about

the fact that he may be sexually aroused by her whether they were ?just friends? or not.

This type of unconventional expression of human emotion is the color of all of the

selections. The author does not wish to conceal feeling nor put on different faces in

different situations but be himself and be happy being himself at all times.

Interesting stands on happiness are also expressed. Boredom is vaguely related to

happiness by the rationalization that one can be happy simply by picking lint off of the

floor. While his thoughts are genuine, one can almost comprehend the randomness of

human thought. There is a wrinkled cellophane wrapper on my desk and it reflects my

image just as water does. Randomness is definitely one of this books strong points. (That

random sentence beforehand was a personal example of the wandering mind).

This is the type of book that you would not want to read between commercials but

one that warrants a good hour and a half (at least) of quiet and thoughtful reading. This is

not a book with a plot. There is only one main character and that main character is the

embodiment of the philosophy of ?me myself and I?. If you like books that exemplify the

importance of the individual, you will definitely like this attempt to show how mankind

should be. Or rather, it shows the true nature of human beings (selfishness).
