Essa situação alterou algo que deveria ser inviolável ? o ritmo de construção de pensamentos ?, gerando consequências seríssimas para a saúde emocional, o prazer de viver, a inteligência, a criatividade. Pensar é bom, pensar com consciência crítica é melhor ainda, mas pensar excessivamente é uma bomba contra a qualidade de vida e um intelecto criativo e produtivo.
