So you're contemplating at the life in front of you, saying : well, how do I want to live it ? Who do I want to be ? And you can actually do it ? Well I almost never took a decision in my life, I mean only a bunch of very little ones, like I always kind of followed the stream. Which is far from being mainstream, if that has any sense, but anyway... I have never been able to choose. At 5 I broke in tears in front of different little cakes, pies etc, because I just couldn't choose one. It's terrible but it's a summary of my life until now ( I'm 30). Hmm... I have to start to change that. Follow your example ! I have a feeling it will not be easy... It’s really interesting how I never thought in those terms.

Enjoying every moment and not taking pictures to prove that you accomplished something, but taking pictures to remember the moment that was experienced.

I believe it does not offer anything else besides the opportunity for you to use your life in the best way you think/feel/believe it's fit. So it's not a question of "why" but a question of "why the hell not", don't you think? You would think life has many things to offer rather than just life itself.

Some people like it, and others kinda shy away from it, but for me i like the fact that i can talk openly, and honestly with no regrets. Of course i do have to gauge who i am talking with in regards to their feelings on certain subjects, and not only try and speak openly, but also listen to what is being said. Only cause certain subjects are a little more touchy than others. Shoot, it seems as though i have been searching for my inner self for a very long time, and every once in awhile i will get a glimpse of that inner power, only to lose it again.....LOL I have always heard the phrase “The world is but a stage, and we all are just mere actors in it” and ” to thyne own self be true” for me i have always tried to be open, and honest to every experiance i have, and definitly be myself.
