Missing Life Quotes

“I’m talking to the only one who’ll listen
About the lonely nights and all that I’m missin
Haven’t seen you lately but I heard your doin fine
I’m In between two places
Where my words didn’t come to you in time”
― Eric Overby, February Rain: Lyrics of a Lonely Traveler

“It seems that we are distracted because we are always in search of something better. We always want to see a different place or a different person’s life, as ours passes us by…We are half present, therefore half appreciative, and our relationships suffer because of it.”
― Eric Overby

“If you knew that you would die in 14 days, what would you do? What about a year? What about 25 years? My guess is, in each circumstance, that everyone would miss as much of their life as they do now. If you are in a habit of mindlessly putting your pennies into the slot machine, you will do it until your pockets are empty. This is why paying attention is so important.”
