Given that we live only a small part of what there is in us - what happens with the rest?

@ElRengo you fail to understand my question

@Nexus THAT´s precisely what I´ve said.

@ElRengo try and understand it. IT's in English

@Nexus
Language is not always enough to describe what is in your mind.
And what is in the mind not always describe well what is out there.

@ElRengo it's a gift to try read what other have asked. Not everyone has the gift. Just to say it a quote so I can't rewrite it

@Nexus
Is also and another gift to make questions within a common frame with others.
So let´s make the assumptions of the quote a bit less ambiguous.
What is the nature of the stuff that is (only) claimed to exist "in us" and "not lived"?

@ElRengo it can be assumed to live within us , not just exist. The nature of what lives in us is feelings and emotions, that seem to exist in us for a very short time.

@Nexus
It can be assumed but it´s not a necessary assumption.
To "live within us" also assumes they are autonomous and for some dualistic worldview are not as parts of us (and of our lived interactions) as our hands are. A possible view, not a "natural" standard.
Besides, you seem to equate "to exists IN us" with being concious or aware of them while most of what is behind of our feelings and emotions is frequently hidden to us.
AND there are emotions that do not vanish in a short time but are part of our baggage for a lifetime.

@ElRengo It is a quote of a man's writing, from the movie Night Train To Portugal. A moving movie about a man who is struggling with a purpose in Life for the short time he lived. Your analysis might be right about the movie, but to watch it will throw more light on the meaning of the sentence. It can be found here.it is a magnificent film...http://dafthippo.com/Night-train-to-Lisbon.php

@Nexus
Seen the movie Night Train to Lisbon, a really good one.
And have the novel with the original story and same name form Pascal Mercier.
Agree, both magnificent.
