But is it fast enough so we can fly away?

"Finally see what it means to be living."

Fast Car
(The vertical horizon version, dedicated to Luci.)

So, what does 'living' even mean? And no, not the biological bit, the pumping of the heart, the flexing of the muscles, the ability to raise one eyebrow, touch your nose with your tongue, no, not that.

I mean, the feeling of existing, of just being so alive, that you almost cant take it. Your bursting, saturated with joy, to just be. To experience life to its fullest, no regrets, nothing holding you back. You jump just because you want to, you move just because the music makes you. You laugh because their words tickled a feeling, you think because your searching for meaning. That drive, that desire to be something, that ruthless ambition, driven for passion thats so strong its almost destructive.



Life just seems to pass me by.

yeah babay! vertical horizon it is! heh. thanks for the dedication.

we all have our moments of "living"... then we get bored... a perpetual state of it can be pretty boring... sometime sim no high on life that it HURTS when i breath... u know ... ur feeling sooo goodu take a deep breath... but it hurts... weird... lol...

btw, the song ends on a negative note... soo... i guess th lady didnt quite get her definition of living right. leaving it all for better oppurtunities is all good... but it still has to be planned... she chose an idiot... depended on him... to share is one thing.. to depend on another to chnage ur life... that makes u come across as a wuss... and u'll mostly like get cheated.

maybe she did become someone... the someone she thought she could be... after she got rid of him :P

whoa vertical horizon!! its been a while since i herd their name ...daymnn (am i that old ...or are they that much of has-beens heheh)
I believe everyone can get to that state of "living" if you allow ur self to let go...relax. just be.
surround urself with the people and things you love. sit in the grass next to flowers under the sun and enjoy that and u'll get the feeling ur looking for ....
(if you hate the sun and grass then (whatt!? what manner of freakk are you???) replace them with whatever works for you ;)

so i think you've had enough sermonizing for one blog. 'what theories!' is right. So is one that says, that living is all that you say it is. Life may be such utter crap, but you're living. And no i don't mean you're breathing and your heart is pumping. I mean, look around you, look inside you, as every exam finishes, the anticipation of one more, the tension before one starts, the wait, the helplessness. They make you alive. I don't know if its the exams or stuff in your life that makes you say life's crap. But come the end of exams, and when you have fun for the sake of having fun because your exams have finished. You'll live. Life is crap at times, so that you keep on learning who it is you really want to live with, to live for.
It'll get better. It always does.
