I should not talk so much about myself if there were anybody else whom I knew as well. Unfortunately, I am confined to this theme by the narrowness of my experience.

نحن نعيش عصر السكينة المفقودة، يلهث إنسان اليوم خلف الانفعال لا الفعل؛ يحس أن عجلة التهميش ستطحنه إن بقي ساكناً للحظات، لذا لابد أن يعلق ويتفاعل مع كل شيء حتى يحقق وجوده، والنتيجة كائنات قلقة تحت الطلب دائما
أَحسِن وَإِن لَم تُجزَ حَتّى بِالثَنا

ατοπία (atopia) Is an ancient Greek expression that means "out of place," or "something/someone that does not belong to this place."
It is the root for both átopos & atopy.
Átopos means (Absurd, and misfit) and was frequently used to describe Socrates. While atopy is a medical term that corresponds to allergy, because an allergic reaction is an "out of place" reaction that is disproportional and exaggerated.

قَهَرَ الوَرى وَأَذَلَّهُم أَنَّ الوَرى
مُتَعَلِّلٌ أَو طامِعٌ أَو مُجتَدِ
جَعَلوا رَغائِبَهُم قِياسَ زَمانِهِم
وَالدَهرُ أَكبَرُ أَنْ يُقاسَ بِمَقصَدِ
وَقَتَلتُ في نَفسي الرَغائِب وَالمُنى
فَقَهَرتُهُ بِتَجَرُّدي وَتَزَهُدي
مَن لَيسَ يَضحَك وَالصَباحُ مُوَرِّدٌ
لِم يَكتَإِب وَالصُبحُ غَيرَ مُوَرِّدِ

It had become clear to me over time that my mercurial temperament and physical restlessness were going to make medical school—especially the first two years, which required sitting still in lecture halls for hours at a time—an unlikely proposition. I found it difficult to stay put for long and found that I learned best on my own. I loved research and writing, and the thought of being chained to the kind of schedule that medical school required was increasingly repugnant.

Maybe a conscience is a mild form of OCD? Or OCD is conscience going haywire?
