Some stories are torn by time. If time could be standing amongst us, it could probably take a step back and wonder if it was worth it.
Sometimes, it appears that not floating on the same side of the globe, or living in the same time zones, or even the pandemic stress, could have added to all the distance that separated us.
Mostly, the separation engulfs the air these days. Most days, I wait for time to show a different story ahead.
Who could we belong to, if not with each other?

All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. -T. E. Lawrence.
ReplyDeleteMy dear Assassin, you need to find somebody who will dream with you, or with whom you can dream. Life is short - almost a dream, but how you live it is important. The world around you is a reflection of your reaction to the world around you.
Character matters, culture tends to define character. It's not absolute, but it's a litmus test, my friend.
I have asked myself the question under the image. I have wished that time would slow down-- stand still for just a moment. The moment we don't want to end. the moment I keep going back to in my mind until it is so distorted, it does not resemble the reality that is there.
ReplyDeleteThe space between relationships can be a time of growth. A time to experience things the relationship stifled, then somehow blend the two. I have not been successful at it though I admit.
If you can, work at shaping time to something/somewhere/somewhen that you can thrive in.
ReplyDeleteEveryone lives in their own little bubble these days so it doesn't matter if people are not more than 5 feet from each other we are all alone.
