Thursday April 6, 2006 - Year 4, Day 17 - time is all we have
condolences to KK on our loss . .
yesterday’s responses prove once again the common ground we share on many fronts; each time any of us have something surprising, confusing or traumatic happen it seems, in the moment, like we are the only person in the world this has ever happened to – therefore how could anyone possibly understand ?
but they do; call it collective hand holding – reach out, reach up, stretch . . someone will be there to help
this day, no better or worse than the last one or the next one
each one offers us the opportunity to in, to grab a fistful of ideas, thrills & energy
or, we can let it pass
let it go by, unused, wasted . . unaffected by us, the world will turn & nothing will change
each day has a very short shelf life
I’ve lost too many days along my path to ever waste another
I will likely live another 40 years, but if I consider the possibility it might be much shorter, I need to be in a hurry to get in all the things I want so badly to do . .
like the grains of sand in the hourglass, time is always running out
time is all we have
it is the greatest wealth, lack of it is the greatest poverty
nothing else matters
use it or lose it
