Only when you find yourself can you understand the world and your place within it. To deny oneself would be to have a limited view of the world, as you yourself are part of it not only in perception but in external interfacing and influence.
Have you ever wondered how street lights turn on automatically? I know there are people behind this, but I'm curious about the mechanism and if it was optimized to preserve energy. Is the trigger the moon? If so, then what happens when it's very cloudy but it's still day time? Is the trigger a certain time of day? If so, then is it necessary to reprogram the mechanism for daylight savings time? Is each street light connected to the same computer?
My friend is coming to visit me tomorrow, and I can't wait! I'm so excited to reconnect and to see what adventures we will end up on tomorrow. Sometimes the anticipation is greater than the reality, but not with this friend. I can't think of a time when my excitement outweighed the reality of the connection I feel with him.
