The brain sometimes does not seem particularly inclined to consider this concept--logic, common sense, reason. It's much easier to throw it out the window and act purely on emotion, impulse, habit, instinct, anything but rational thought. Maybe it is human nature, maybe a desire to get out of the metaphorical box someone never fails to bring up.
Usually, however, making such irrational decisions is foolish and does not give the best results. Usually. Sometimes these things work out remarkably well and the consequences that one would expect from such a decision seem to be entirely absent. Occasionally, everything seems to just work, despite all premonitions to the contrary.
Regardless, decisions made without consideration for logic are not the best of ideas. They create unnecessary difficulties and messes and can occasionally backfire significantly. In other words, they can go one way or the other, they can be good or bad. Tossing logic to the wind is a risk. It may be a very calculated and carefully assessed risk, but it is a risk nonetheless.
Sorry, I know this post sucks. My mind is just not into this tonight. It's been a long day with lots of ups and downs. Hopefully I'll write something better tomorrow?
