And now after all the years of having this perspective, it seems like it's helped my intellect, because i've notice I think a lot more abstract as most people around me.

Have you ever heard of a guy by the name of Ludwig Wittgenstein?
His writings on epistemology/perceptions of reality are enjoyable, but it can be a difficult concept to grasp initially.
I kind of understand it now.
I have my own philosophy.
Basically, it says, "don't worry, be happy."
