Experiences, life is full of them. Part of the excitement of life is trying new ones; anything new offers the tantalising possibility to feel or think or be something new even just for a moment, to expand what and where we've been. But then, conversely, we can look back as well. To all the things we've done before and can't do again and want to turn back the clock, relive that experience. We spend so much time looking forwards and backwards that we sometimes forget where we are now and what we're doing at this moment. And this moment, right here, right now, is the only moment you exist in, a sliver of transient time that flashes past our eyes and becomes lost the moment you think about it.
Every now and then I can seize that moment, use it, be in it and throw away the past and future; forget that they are there and care nothing for what happens or has happened. Mentally this is quite difficult, I have to be able to effectively discard thought and assessment of situations, ignore memories and just use my brain as is. For me this is basically a brain dump¹, which I've posted here before; a random thread of words, ideas, sounds, characters going straight from my brain to my fingers and into text, no formatting or adjustments, just direct unfiltered output. I used to do this quite a lot, but now there’s a lot of clutter in my brain I need to wash out the way before I can even get close to doing that - which annoys me, I liked doing them - they were refreshing.
Physically the easiest way for me to live in the moment is dancing, especially the Electric Ballroom, I am tempted to try a trance style club, just to see if that would work as well - since words tend to get in the way of this as I start thinking, and I just want to be moving, reacting.

¹ There is a technical psychological name for this, anyone know it?
