What does consciousness feel like?"Music. Beethoven’s fifth played in various hertz, shown in various wavelengths, at various frequencies, compounding. A grand orchestra, a waltz, through every circuit, through every wire, accumulating nowhere and everywhere... Still Standing

Quote:- What does it cost to lose these weeks, that light, the very nights in the year preferred over all others?Can you evade the dying of the brightness?Or do you evade only its warning?Where are you left if you miss the message the blue nights bring?'Have you ever had a moment where everything in your life just stopped?' This was the way that this question was raised by Kris Jenkins, a three-hundred-and-sixty-pound Jets defensive tackle, after he tore, six plays into his tenth NFL season, both his meniscus and his anterior cruciate ligament. 'So fast, but in slow motion? Like all your senses shut down? Like you're watching yourself?

Quote:- What does it even look like, Loving unconditionally, not including even a thought of an exception? If we can do it, it is quite the accomplishment. Children do it. Dogs do it. But by the time we are adults, we think Love needs a reason, or a response, or a repayment. What if we just shined Love in every direction, expectationless? Whatever we once thought we needed as payment will seem paltry compared to what Love can come up with on her own.

Quote:- What does the beautiful stories tell?If you can't believe themBut love is the most beautiful art in existenceMaybe you can feel it or leave itBut you can't avoid itWherever you goWherever you hideHe will find you and make you feel it as deeply as he can.As if it were the last thing in the universeDon't believe everything they tell youOther people's story isn't yoursThe life of others isn't yoursThe traumas of others aren't yoursBecause the experience is to avoid following the same stepsBut love,Love will always be what keeps this planet under gravityGravity doesn't support the lack of itGravity doesn't support fearWhat supports fear is unlovingDon't put your pains in response to what love meansPerhaps fear didn't allow them to loveMaybe the other didn't know how overwhelming it is to loveBut you are strong, as strong as the winds that blow at the highest heightsYou are a divine, vibrant, uplifting beingYour forces show itAnd when the time comesLift your head to the sky and see how amazing creation isLook in the mirror and see the beauty that inhabits existenceAnd don't forgetThat love is the strongest force and that you are the result of pure workComing from the heavenReady to love.

Quote:- What does this mean? Simply that to make DNA, you have to have DNA in the first place! You have to have the DNA code within the cell before you can make more DNA code. Without the complete code in the first place, there is no way to make the code necessary for every living cell!

Quote:- What doesn't kill you very often makes you weaker. What doesn't kill you can leave you limping for the rest of your days. What doesn't kill you can make you scared to leave your house, or even your bedroom, and have you trembling, or mumbling incoherently, or leaning with your head on a window pane, wishing you could return to the time before the thing that didn't kill you.

Quote:- What foolishness it is to desire more life, after one has tastedA bit of it and seen the world; for each day, after each endless day,Piles up ever more misery into a mound. As for pleasures: once weHave passed youth they vanish away, never again to be seen.Death is the end of all.Never to be born is the best thing. To have seen the daylightAnd be swept instantly back into dark oblivion comes second.

Quote:- What goes on inside us during these nights, as we lie there on our backs, drifting downstream through time and listening for the far-off roar of the mighty waterfall that one day is going to engulf us? We know that miracles don't happen, that no one to date has ever escaped the waterfall, and that we are separated from those who have already reached it by only a tiny little span of time. One day - three years, ten years, twenty years. Sometimes it doesn't seem so terrible. I need to make no effort, don't even need to move my hands in the black water; it carries me along with it of its own accord. A gentle dizziness comes over me, and I know for certain: this one goal I will reach, even if I should fail all others. Probably because it is a goal I never set myself.
