Time and Life

 Time is a funny thing. the more time goes on the more it breaks down walls and rusts away what we once thought invincible. Now we stand on the very moment that everything else depends on. "The Present" it is simple yes.. what we did is the past and cannot be undone, the future holds no promise of tomorrow for it is a mystery. It is today that is so special... today you can live life. Forget all those schemes that look to future wealth and prosperity, for that will never lead to the success I'm talking about. No nothing can be greater than how you live out each day. How you really spend your years as they slip by. No in the end I imagine that each of us should abandon the grand schemes and elaborate prizes we hunt to feed our pride. No I think that life's story should be lived out in a happiness. The happiness that comes from thinking each day is full of opportunities and trials. And each day we can seize life and find happiness in the all the quirks and mistakes we find ourselves in everyday. Each day is meant to be lived in the present for it is only in the present that we have the power to change the course of time and ourselves. But wait... can we be truly happy if we abandon all plans, dreams, goals etc...? Does living for the moment mean abandoning something worth striving for? what happens when we find the one thing worth hanging on to. The one hope, that we can't simply live without. For in this lifetime some of us inevitably find that one thing that makes sense of the world we live in. And to those that are still searching for that...I can only express my sympathy for you. I hope that you will find what I have...something worth living for. It is in this that I realize that maybe life isn't made to be lived at minute by minute, but maybe...just maybe we live because we have purpose. A purpose that we couldn't foresee but one that we invariably find ourselves in. So here's the moment where you must ask yourself...what is your purpose..what is your life....are you waiting for something to happen or did you already find something worth living for, something that time cannot rust, something that is pure, noble, true....so now here comes the advice...wake up...start living your life. Start living for a purpose....that's it...times up.
