: :And I wonder why experiences don't feel "real" to me. : I get very angry with myself for not being able to get involved in a situation. I TRY and experience it fully, withough feeling so damn detached, but it doesn't work. I always end up feeling like a character in a book, like you said, no matter what I do. I want to be able to experience something FOR REAL once, instead of so indirectly. : -Emily, I also analyze things as theyre happening as well...ARGH!!! Quite a paradox you have there, Emily: if you feel detached from an experience, as if you were watching yourself as a character in a book, are you really living in the present? Are you really free on your swing in the rain, or just dreaming of what freedom must be like? - Hal -
