What does it mean to you to REALLY live your life? What parts of your life (either present or non-existent as of yet) make you feel ALIVE?
For me, it comes down to the following:
Lots of new experiences; be it new cuisines, meeting new people etc.
travelling to new cities/countries
maybe even living there for a short period of time to satisfy my need for new experiences
learning about people and why they act/feel the way they do
helping them dig to the bottom of their issues (SO REWARDING!)
learning theories and figuring out the best ways to initiate change in peoples lives (with their consent)
learning more and more about myself
working on personal correctional projects like habits, ways of thinking (really, really difficult to do - it makes me cry)
listening to some of the intelligent people I know talk about people, and everything to do with their psychology
listening to really good music
letting GOOD music move me
getting lost when i draw my sketches and coming out of it only when i think it is close to perfect (this perfectionism - something I need to work on :()
This list spells PASSION for me.
Now, the question is, why don’t I do all of this stuff more often!?
Next question for you is, do you do everything that is in your list, often? If you do, I want to know all about it!
If you don’t, well, we’re in the same boat. It is time to make it happen!
Thanks for posting CL! Well you know i love out door sports. This summer i went bungee jumping 3 times!. and doing all these activities makes me feel soo alive. And as lets say, regular days i watch tv shows which i missed on my laptop with cup of green tea!

Bungee jumping reminds me of skydiving!!! That's what I would LOVE to do! No money right now and not enough guts to actually jump off a plane. Ah, the thought makes me hold my breath in anticipation of the experience.
I think your zodiac is Pisces right? New experiences
For new experiences by default it comes when you go out in social gatherings in hotel or if u like sports and visit any sports club you meet new people some 1 ask you to play and during playing you into each other discuss job industries etc. Travelling to new cities
I love travelling in past when we got a semester breaks me and my few friends make plans buy Maps from market discussing fighting then finalize the city but now long time no travelling due Job and other responsibilities.
When we travelled we stop every dhaba and restaurant and the place where we visit locals guides us we meet them ask them how they live what they want to do in life and realize how people live. Helping them dig to the bottom of their issues
Like to do that as it’s in my domain often I do that through brain storming in family & friends
I feel good when I help others its makes me alive.
Most of the things u mentions is also in my list but how to do don’t know do u have any plan to do that?

I am scared of people who are so concerned about other people's behaviours - they can be very nosy (just generalizing here). I personally stay away from them because their curiosity is too much for me to handle.
Knowledge makes me feel alive. If I am not learning smtng, I feel like I am missing out. I love being with my friends - don't care much about places at all - infact, I don't even remember the names of the places i go to..only remember the conversations and people I was with. I love food but don't care about where I eat it - never remember restaurants but always remember what I ate. Listening to music - depending on mood, I will listen to anything - don't remember the singers, albums etc. just the songs and lyrics...hahaha..anything that makes me laugh to my bones makes me feel alive.
