“Missing someone has to be one of the worst human emotions. All the other feelings like anger and fear and horror get some much more airplay, as if their intensity gives them more value, but whereas those emotions come in violent bursts and are gone again, the gnawing ache of loss has to be simply endured. It's like background noise, it's always there, it never goes away. You just have to try to block it out, distract yourself, hope that tomorrow the hole they left behind has grown a little smaller.” IfsGivingTryingHumansLittlesFeelingsValuesLeftLossEmotionBehindsGoneWorstMissingTomorrowHorrorViolentBackgroundsHolesNoiseBlockIntensityAcheLeft BehindMissing SomeoneHuman EmotionsAnger And FearBackground Noise Author:Alexandra Potter
“What's missing is the testosterone. What's missing is the fury. What's missing is the passionate convicted commitment. And I got a lot of mine from my religious background. So y'all best stop imagining the way Dr. Zorba looked, or some defenseless Hasidic Jew with a little yarmulke on his head, 'cause that ain't here for you.” WayLittlesCausesReligiousMissingMinesCommitmentPassionateJewBackgroundsDrsFuryTestosteroneDefenseless Author:David Lee Roth
“One of the important things about religion is that it is a sphere which is partially protected from selection. Religious creativity occurs when people pull out of the whole selectivity issue. Becoming celibate - obviously you couldn't be less selective that that. Yes, selection is always in the background. But it's not always there in the foreground. If you don't understand that, you're missing a lot.” PeopleIfsImportantWholeReligiousCreativityIssuesMissingBecomingImportant ThingsBackgroundsSpheresProtectedSelectionSelectiveForeground Author:Robert Neelly Bellah
“You don't ever really let go, though. You don't stop. You don't stop hurting, you don't stop loving. It doesn't go away, you just keep living and eventually things get pushed into the background of your life so it's not consuming you every day. It still hurts, you still miss that person. And then one day you know you're okay.” KnowsPersonsStillsHurtMissingOne DayLetting GoOkayBackgroundsGoing AwayConsumingHurting YouIt Still Hurts Author:Jasinda Wilder
“I wanted to have more songs with religious backgrounds. The Christmas record has strong, traditional hymns, but it also has a song called 'Christmas in Heaven' about missing someone that you love that's passed on, and wondering what's going on up there on Christmas.” WantedSongStrongHeavenReligiousWonderRecordsMissingBackgroundsTraditionalMissing SomeoneHymns Author:Scotty McCreery
“The brain "fills in" the missing information from the blind spot. Notice what you see in the location of the dot when it's in your blind spot. When the dot disappears, you do not perceive a hole of whiteness or blackness in its place; instead your brain invents a patch of the background pattern. Your brain, with no information from that particular spot in visual space, fills in with the patterns around it. You're not perceiving what's out there. You're perceiving whatever your brain tells you.” SpaceBrainMissingInformationParticularBlindPatternsDisappearBackgroundsHolesSpotsPerceiveVisualsLocationPatchesDotsBlacknessWhitenessBlind Spots Author:David Eagleman
