My hard drive is feeling full and I feel sometimes like I’m living in a cubicle. These are mere metaphors that have nothing to do with any actual state of affairs.
But inside the metaphor, cream is rising.
“Most of your fears, most of your anxieties, very few of them are in the right here, right now. They’re horrible things that happened in the past, or they’re scary things that might maybe could happen in the future.”
“I think that’s the amazing thing about life. You can’t watch it again.”
“We are here. The chances of us being us … that sperm hitting that egg … is 400 trillion to 1. We’re not special, but we ARE lucky. We don’t exist for 13 billion years. Then we explode into this blob of thought, introspection, love, hate, fear, beauty, horror … for eighty, ninety years. Then we die and we never exist again.” (Gervais, with Brand)
So don’t live in fear and make the most of it baby.
