Where is the life we have lost in living?

Absolutely

    A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. 
He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest a kind of optical delusion of his consciousnessThis delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures & the whole of nature in its beauty.
-Albert Einstein
