Question:

Do some moments seem more real than others?

Most of my day to day experiences just seem like a sitcom playing out in front my eyes. Sure, I participate and change things up and try doing different things to avoid monotony, but I still have these occasional moments that seem 'super-real'. Like sometimes I look into someone's eyes and it seems like they are really there and I'm really looking at them. I guess I'm just wondering if anyone else experiences these moments that seem more real and how/if they are trying to increase their frequency.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You mean moments were you're suddenly and powerfully aware? Yeah, especially when I've been walking or driving for a while. Everything seems suddenly 3D. I can look at a tree and it suddenly means something in size, color, texture and weight. Before and afterwards, it's more of a symbol than an actual object in my mind.
