yeah i think it is true, like if you like someone, but you don't see them for a while, the crush decreases, yeah!? so i think its a true statementWww@QuestionHome@Com

Silly saying!.

EXAMPLE:
You are in the kitchen making an ice cream cone with ice cream!. You finish up and put all the stuff away and head outside to eat the ice cream!. On your way out your little sister who is four sees the ice cream is asks you for one!. You reply with a "No"!. Latter on you sister keeps begging you for an ice cream even after you ate it!.

See!?

Well!.!. Actually it depends on the scenario!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

False!. The mind has four more senses at its disposal!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not always!.!.!.have you ever missed someone you love!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's not universally true!. It's a saying that's used to describe and characterize certain kinds of situations (and the behaviors of the people in them)!.

People often have a tendency to ignore inconvenient facts whenever they're not in plain view, and it's those sorts of situations where the saying is most often invoked!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes!. What one currently sees is fact, therefore technically if one can't see it in the present, then it shouldn't be in their mind!.

No!. If one believes that something does and can exist beyond what they are currently seeing!. We don't see The Lord but our faith in believing that HE is real a fact, keeps HIS presence in our mindsWww@QuestionHome@Com

definatly not! I think of this boy even when he's not there!. I think of a book i never finished reading!. I can write about rain when its not raining!. PLease dont bealive that statement!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
