do you crave it?

to live "in the moment", to not be thinking "what about that thing" or "that thing" and rather experience a kind of existentialist singularity.

It is a common finding within addicts, a craving for a similar "altered self" state, but there are two sides to this coin...

How do I achieve it?

Various ways,

the positive: Playing live, Songwriting, Painting, Photography, work and of course, riding my bike.

the negative: binge consumption.

My understanding of this marked a beneficial change in the way I was living, I found that the biggest "highs" were actually whilst being sober and whilst playing live music to a packed bar is many things; terrifying, calming, exciting, real its also a bit trickey, you need to concentrate, you need that focus...

So I'm hooked on living, I've confronted my demons, my faith and now its all about building a sustainable and successful future.

But as importantly, I'm also driven by my need to experience this aforementioned "existentialist singularity" and thats all positive. What's more, on a lighter note, they still haven't found the bodies.

When did you last experience being completely "In the moment"??
