Time is a interesting thing, life too. But what would be life without time?? no fun for sure, but it seems its Time that give all its meaning, its importance, its Power. In Alice in Wonderland, of my favorites books of all time the Rabbit runs in a hurry "O dear! O dear! I shall be late!" so its the nature of time, always in a hurry, there is never time for anything, in Life things are either too good and go so fast or so terribly bad that time seems to enjoy torturing us in its sssslllloooowwwwneesss.
"Go fast Time can you??!! Time now go slow!!...now I feel better, now go slow Time, please!!" and so we are, we fragil little Humans changed by Time. But we are far from being "victims" of Time, all depends on how we use it or how we play with it, "Play with Time?!! The Horror!!"well....."Two things you never play with, Time and Food!!" says often Mother Destiny...I guess she might be right!!
Time sure have been giving me something to think about about and thats another good thing about Time, it makes you think!! when you stop and look back at life and look ahead at the Future, its without a shadow of a doubt a good conversation topic...with yourself!!
But as I was writting, before being inturrupted by another chain of thought that always take me somewhere else, Time and Life, two things you can never live without and if you doubt me that you cant live without them, let me just tell you, many have tryed but no one returned to tell how it was!!
Yes, Time eat us all in a good all greek mithological way, Goya once painted a painting of Kronos (the good of Time) eating its suns, its a brutal unhumane painting, but the real brutality resides on what lies beneath, Death, our own Death!! I know I am a bit young to think about such "non sence", many would just advice me to " enjoy your life and do the best out of it!!" I agree with them, I am doing the best i can to enjoy it, to find some meaning, some purpose, some pleasure in it and its on Times like this these people seem to go on the religious path.
" On box number 2, we have Buddha" "On box number 3 Jesus" "On box number 4 you have a Life driven by greed and personal ignorance" I to some extend already did my choosing, box nunber 3?? but not all questions are answered by a sacret book or a Saviour, or even by psycotherapy founded by a sir that had some parent issues and saw sex everywhere, mister Freud!
No, Time is making me think about my purpose in here and on how i havent felt that I havent Lived Life as fully as i wanted, because the World seems often so confusing, so strange and unpredictable. But not just the world, but also myself. I am not looking for "bullet proof answers" or some "already made recepe of complete happyness" buy now limited time offer $12.99. No, No, No!! Life is not a TV show or a comodity you can use or abuse as you wish for, Life is fragil but its whats inside us that make it so much more important. Life is made of potentalities and oportunities, yes I know we all know that, we read the books, we did some thinking and we are all very mature!! I know, I know, but still that never stop us from making mistakes....
Time is tiking for you and for everyone, still we prefer to live a life of senceless spending, senceless pretending and numbing self unawareness...we live in Anxious times!! In times where the meaningfull and important became boring and irrelevant, because the life and fashion of some people you will never know is more important then your/our self knowledge!!
Time and Life is like the Rabbit of Alice in Wonderland, on the run, you can go after him, but how sure if you will ever catch him? you can try!! But while me and you do that, lets figure out who we are, with the little honesty we have left!!
