4. My dear mdmc!
This reminds me of the line in The Shawshank Redemption.....

If you're not busy living, then you're busy dying....something like that!

And how true this is!

GREAT line.....I thank you!

5. It is from a Bob Dylan lyric
the song is "It's all right Ma (I'm only bleeding)"

14. I guess I'm the latter.
There have been times that I felt that I was dying, literally, since I was very sick for a long time. And I've had bad times recently, emotionally, but I now try to reinvent myself with each new day. I've been recently inspired. I'm hanging in there, which is the best I can do. There was no option for that, so I voted for the latter...

Rhiannon:-)

17. busy living.
I don't give a shit about where I came from, and I'm not interested in where I'll end up.

I'm enjoying the journey.

And oh, is it painful!

Interesting, though. I wouldn't trade it for anything, except "sooner."
