that infinite feeling

Whoa did I just finish reading a book?  Ok - it's not 1Q84 which I vow to do by the end of the year.  But I did just finish The Perks of Being a Wallflower because I wanted to read it before I watch the movie.  Not to pat myself on the back too much - the book is like middle school reading.  That's not to say it's not good, but it doesn't change my life.  That's the measuring stick - does a book or movie change your life after you read it or watch it?  Like Norwegian Wood or Before Sunset does.  This one - probably not. (B)

But I do like the line about feeling infinite.  And how Sam tells Charlie that it's not enough to just feel things inside but you have to let people know. 

"Charlie, don't you get it?  I can't feel that.  It's sweet and everything, but it's like you're not even there sometimes.  It's great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn't need a shoulder.  What if they need the arms or something like that?  You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love.  You just can't.  You have to do things."

I think that's one of my biggest problems.  I don't do things.  I just feel.
