What's a moment in your life where you felt fully alive?
What's a moment in your life where you felt fully alive?
I am reading "Unmasking Autism" by Devon Price and the introduction has an exercise that requires you to come up with 5 moments in your life where you felt fully alive. I have spent the better part of yesterday trying to remember such moments, but I am not even sure what it means... I was hoping the community here can provide some insights, either by sharing their moments or their definition of being "fully alive".
Full text of the exercise for anyone interested:
Instructions: Think of five moments in your life when you felt like you were FULLY ALIVE. Try to find moments from throughout your life (childhood, adolescence, adulthood; school, work, vacation, hobbies).
Some of the moments might leave you with a sense of awe and wonder—“wow, if all of life was like that, life would be amazing!” Some of the moments might leave you feeling deeply recharged and ready to face the next challenge, or satisfied and fulfilled.
Write down each of these moments. Tell the story of each moment in as much detail as possible. Try to think specifically about why the moment stuck with you sodramatically.

like when im kinda daydreaming on uni, i think so this is the thing i waiting for, in the end its feel good study, or when i feel love, but i feel it like a few times in my life, i feel like life has some meaning and i could just relax and go through my life, knowing like tomorrow is going to be the same day that today but not worrying about it, that i have in control everything and that im surrounded by the correct people. but honestly i feel like i can have a friend, but i wish i could have someone to love, to say my deepest feelings and he could understand me, that he or she was in the place for me, i dont know how to express that, not in a dependency relationship but that i can like a real beautiful life. but unfortunately that person hasn't come and also this communication problem that i can say anything almost my feelings lol
