Heartfelt stuff…I suppose my experience is honestly nothing like yours…

But remember…the human experience is nothing but :
(1) the sensory/physical

(2) the cognitive (beliefs, occurrent thoughts, etc.)

(3) the emotions (positive or negative in general)

How these things interact according to (some) law of cause and effect makes us, from one day to the next, from one season to the next, exactly what we are…

…but nothing is set in stone, at least in the human experience.

cheer up, willya?
