People always say, "Live life to the fullest because you never know which day will be your last." Does anyone really mean this? Do YOU live life to the fullest?

that the virtuous side of humankind may also lead to its destruction? Everyone seems to agree that greed and hatred will one day lead to mankinds downfall. Couldn'd virtues like compassion and empathy cause extinction as well? By feeding famine stricken countries and peoples devastated by earthquakes are we not interferring with the natural order. Does this not add to the imbalance nature tries to achieve? Are we damned if we do and damned if we don't?

Money, love, peace, God, power, your own band, a porche. Give it a little thought. What do you need to be content? Do you have it or them already. If you don't, how will you make it happen.

P.S. For you deeply religious people, please don't just say God. There is more to life than only God and nothing else. I think some of the other things are why he put us here in the first place. (Atheists and pagans, please disregard)

Given we need language, say English, to communicate with one and other.
We communicate in sound and in writing and so the language is linear - it is spoken and interpreted in lines. EG The cat sat on the mat.
Why do we think in English though? Surely English and other spoken languages are high level languages necessary for external communication. I feel there should be some underlying machine code to handle communicating with our inner selves.
