Does anyone else love life?

Do any of you ever just stop trying to figure out life, put all belief systems aside and just say "You know what?, I may not be sure what life exactly is, but im glad im here cuz this feels goood!!" Yup it comes to my mind all the time. During good relationship times, while really stoned, when i get a nice pay check or even when i had to piss real bad and finally made it to a bathroom. And when im having a not-so-good moment, i just think about the ultimate balance and how for every bad time there is a good time awaiting after. Its funny because i used to be very pessamistic as a kid, i had a smart mouth full of sarcasam and hate for the world. Untill i started getting into Philosophy and smoking good Ganja. Now its like no one can tell me life is worthless!

I know whatcha mean about the bathroom part...oh goodness, is that a beautiful thing. Occasionally i'm tempted to hold it just to have that time. But yeah, life is good...i like watching it grow and change and alter itself..in myself and others and all sorts of living things i surround myself with. Stay Frosty. R.C.

im totally loving life sometimes i slip into the thought process of "just another pointless rock hurling through space, so why does it matter" But i usually catch myself...the thing is, there is no meaning of life. Some individuals may view this as depressing, but it doesnt have to be like that. Really, it just opens up a whole COSMOS of possibilities. Invent, define, create your own meaning of life, one that is specific to you.
This is why, when tripping on shrooms, i can find the meaning of life in a shoe, a river, or a concept. It doesn't matter. Life is what you make of it

I'm glad to say I have at least one of these moments a day, now
It came from a realization I had, that what is happening right now is happening the only way it can.
Live for the moment!
Everything is as it should be!

-------------------- Live in your own reality. Sorround yourself with positivity while being aware of the darkness. The heaven so many people are in search of is much closer than they believe. Its a state of mind. Its not about reaching a destination becuase there is no destination, its an infinite, exponential journey.

My sentiments exactly, it is funny cuz when I was a kid/teenager I also was very negative and full of sarcasm. And in consequence, life was pretty boring and many negative things will happened to me. In time I changed (MJ also helped me, then shrooms made me see the big picture) I can frankly say I live pretty good now, I don?t even now what it is to get depress anymore, I try to enjoy life to the fullest and above all every morning the first thing I do I give thanks for my life. If there is one thing I now in this life, is that we are in life were we need to be, because we created the circumstance. There is no point in blaming others, if you have a negative outlook in life you cannot expect good things to happen to you simple as that. But when you change your attitude (thoughts and feelings) so does your environment, this is the real magic, we are all magicians with out know it. And above all take it easy, there is no rush man.

Reading through this thread, I'm reminded of why "carpe diem" is one of the BEST latin phrases in the world! I live my life hour-to-hour, day-to-day. We're not on this rock for that long, we might as well enjoy it together. Let's just be lucky that psychedelics bring us back to this point, else we'd just be puppets of the government...

Yeah but its not just about loving life, its about appretiating the small things. Like buying a new album and finding out it was actually worth the money, watching a rerun of your favorite show that got canceled. The first time you laughed real hard while high or winning at a 4 player PlayStation game. Even the first time you got drunk and felt you were the life of the party... hmm, makes you want reincarnation to be real.

I feel like it all started after my trip in amsterdam. I had this moment of realization that I loved myself, I loved my friends and family, and I was truly grateful for being given the chance to be alive. Granted its hard for me to keep that state of mind, but every now and then I just take a step back and appreciate everything that is.
Life is about experience, whether good or bad. I feel like I'm starting to internalize that, I'm just enjoy the ride.
