Convictions vs. Reason

During a conversation last week

I heard myself saying

“Your convictions are getting in the way of your reasoning”

Afterwards I found myself wondering 

Where that statement came from

It was actually a personal truth I was speaking

It's not rare to find myself
Not wanting to understand

Certain human behaviors,

Which are actually very simple and clear

To comprehend, if I strictly stick with

"Reason"

And forget what I believe

Should or shouldn't be

One example

Is that I belief that

People should add substance

To other people's life

So when someone like

Kim Kardashian becomes

As popular as she is

I'm like,

"I DON'T UNDERSTAND!!"

But if I stick to reason

I can attribute her infamy to

Marketing

Psychology

Entertainment

Group-Think

Sociology

Controversy

Distraction

And I suppose there are many

Other ways to explain

The popularity

Of individuals like K.K

Allowing reason to come before conviction
Is far less frustrating and
Even liberating

I'm sticking to reason
