I've crossed some kind of invisible line. I feel as if I've come to a place I never thought I'd have to come to. And I don't know how I got here. It's a strange place. It's a place where a little harmless dreaming and then some sleepy, early-morning talk has led me into considerations of death and annihilation. Raymond Carver
About This Quote

The quote, “I’ve crossed some kind of invisible line. I feel as if I’ve come to a place I never thought I’d have to come to. And I don’t know how I got here. It’s a strange place.

It’s a place where a little harmless dreaming and then some sleepy, early-morning talk has led me into considerations of death and annihilation,” is an example of how we can easily get lost in the world around us. We may be so busy trying to do things that we forget about the bigger picture and what our life is truly about. Have you ever known people who never let go of their lives? They pursue something they want so much that they fail to see the happiness in the little things that they do each day.
