I've only been on this site for a few days, and already, I feel part of something. I love reading and learning about other people, their views, their cultures, their stories, their pain, their happiness... I especially love not really knowing the superficial details about anyone (age, location, etc.). It doesn't necessarily make me forget my issues, but it makes me realize more and more that my issues can be pretty bullshit sometimes. A lot of them are self-created unnecessarily.
I remember when I was younger sitting in the back seat of my mom's car and we were at a stop light. I really sat there and looked at the person in the car next to us (who looked upset and in deep thought) and realized...they have their own life, their own family, their own set of issues, their own fears, needs, etc. It is a simple observation, but it was life-altering for me. I have to remind myself that I am just a small part of this world. It's comforting to know I'm not alone. When I get wrapped up in my woes or just life in general, I forget that. This site reminds me...
And for that, I say, thanks for the perspective :)

I just wish I could look the other way:P Instead of daydreaming about the car next to me...can I focus on the road ahead of me? It's so hard to get focussed and active. So many days I would rather curl up in a daydream and ponder the world...and many times I wish I had someone to share that with...to become one mind and body with them...intimate intellectualism to the extreme...just floating in the thought of it all...

Daydreaming and pondering the world sounds wonderful...especially with a companion that shares your views. That is what Sundays are for... assuming you have that person in your life. If not, writing helps... and food, sadly :(
