pandora's box
Time is a luxury. Time is a commodity priceless. Once lost, never to be regained.
It can be cruel in its passing...challenges life changing
... and then at times kind and blessed for it can heal a pain deep a loss shattering.
How easy we forget that time is not ours to keep...not even for a zillionth of a second. How disrespectful we are in our treating of time.
How forgetful we are to share in each other complete no matter the circumstance, the honesty and sincerity in the share tarnished with selfish thoughts of jealousy and intrigue.
That statement..."I will do it tomorrow" or "tomorrow is another day"....make sure the day next, is the right day to leave an action undone, a statement unsaid, a realisation procrastinated for no other reason than simply thinking that time is on ones side.
Yes. One should not be like a bull in a china shop and bulldoze ones way through life....but a common thread seems to have popped up among humans....
the tiredness of facing financial uncertainty
the tiredness of facing a relationship rocky
the tiredness of global uncertainty
the tiredness of a path forward uncertain.
An apathy settling... that things cannot be better than they are... a sad acceptance of the mediocrity of a life influenced by much that is out of the control of the normal man on the street.
It feels as if the time when a legacy left by a parent, no matter how big or small, ones roots, an honour in a family name, a friendship meaningful and deep and lifelong, a family unity, a job proud of.....is not within the grasp of humans....a tarnishing has taken place....a forgetfulness of what is important....or maybe ....a maze of confusion with wrong turns over and over....slapping one down into submission....are we puppets of our own doing or are we puppets of others in seats powerful?
We have opened Pandora's box...and what we have found seems to be destroying us....TIME.....relative or not....it is what we make of it.
