All others around me are doing 'like' something. Is there an end to simply doing?

The internet is full of people I can relate to and share half-decent thoughts with--why can't there be more people like this in my daily life?
"For a man to conquer himself is the first and noblest of all victories." - Plato
"Out of damp and gloomy days, out of solitude, out of loveless words directed at us, conclusions grow up in us like fungus: one morning they are there, we know not how, and they gaze upon us, morose and gray. Woe to the thinker who is not the gardener but only the soil of the plants that grow in him."- Friedrich Nietzsche
two stupid dogs! Best cartoon. ever.
Told by a fool, signifying nothing.
an end to simplicity has come... as we everlastingly complicate life.
We do not live life anymore; we act as if we do. Or impersonate living... ahh, your one simple (yet profound) thought of the day has made me want to think (or live) beyond similes...
Oh and Zeruiah... I feel you on that. I often wonder that myself. Perhaps because the Internet is so vast and connects so many people from different places...yet the people we encounter in our daily life are such a small part of the whole...or are stuck in some kind of mundane daily existence.

If you got your head knocked in such a fashion that the eyeball popped out of the socket, but was still attached to the optical nerve, would you be able to see forward and down/sideways (or whatever way the ball was looking) at the same time? Or would your brain not be able to comprehend that and just shut down the visual section? How about if you closed the eye still in your head?\\
I am totally going to go and post this in the ask Bakiryu thread too![]()
Naked except for a cigarette, you let your mind drift and forget your disbelief. Feel the chill down your back and the flutter of wings through dandelion fields, and forget the pull of gravity in a night without stars.
I lack eloquence and commitment to my arguments. They are half baked, and I will begin passionately, and then abandon them.
I have a love/hate relationship with alcohol.

Good engineer doesn't solve a problem; he avoids it.
At thunder and tempest, At the world's coldheartedness,
During times of heavy loss And when you're sad
The greatest art on earth Is to seem uncomplicatedly gay.
To get things clear, they have to firstly be very unclear. But if you get them too quickly, you probably got them wrong.

Just who was this Murphy guy, that there should be a law named after him ?
