My heart aches, to beat with the flow of time eternal. Not to count the seconds, but to know the passing. Death is only the beginning; life is only the moment. Pain unites them both. Pain severs, connects and furthermore brings balance to the lack of such. Heaven, a transcendent paradise above our placid river of life. Hell, the fire below our feet, churning the sands; boiling the water; raising the winds.
The earth aches, for at its core burns a love deeper than all the vast pools of knowledge itself. We overcome fear, to wade into the waters; to see beyond depth and know once again that time is master. Patience is key. Servitude is silence.
Rebellion is wrath. War is wrought from age. Age, an agent of time. Slowly stripping away all we are, until the flesh we know, is nothing but food for the ages to come. Time feeds on the worrier. War feeds on the warrior. Death feeds upon the devoted; ignorant of time and its tick, ******* the happiness out of the unknown. Positive presence is a blessing. Negative nihilism is a weight.
Be free of it. Be free of greed for gold and bottomless wonder. Time, are the steps we make between seasons. Agents of peace. The silence of space can never break its chains. Life is the same.
You ever looked at something you did and wondered, "How did I do that?" I get that feeling when I look at this. It's like it lights a fire in my soul and makes me believe in things I once forgot. I wrote this as a Facebook post on this day in 2011 (5 years ago), and though time is a distance vaster than a thousand worlds, I can traverse it in a single memory.
