Feeling life seems kinda like tasting water.
That's beautiful, Amuirin! I'm going to need to think about that.
Sometimes in order to experience life you need to capture the grandness and let go of limitations. We need to stop analyzing life. Good quote
Hi Enreal! I think analyzing life has its place, but it is no substitute for living -- analysis is commentary on living, rather than living.
