Time Sublime and Love Divine (it rhymes!)



Time is CRAZY. It's slow. It's fast. Time is here, oh! But once you realize where you are than it's already ephemeral and past. It's something that I am constantly perplexed and fascinated by but I can never grasp... aaaaah time...is simply time.


I just spent a week on vacation at Miami Beach. What happened to time for that week? Did it go on vacation with me? No, it stood still and slipped by and I was there and there it was and now it's past but presently, as I recall that week, the present is passing and I'm stuck somewhere between the future, the present, the past. That week seemed so short I can't believe it's over. At the same time when I went to work today it felt like eons ago since I had been at work...but it's only been a week.


A realization I'm coming back to lately...when you feel weak, when you don't know if you have the strength to go on, when you're drowning and you're bones are sapped remember in your soul that the one thing that is all important is LOVE in all it's beauty. When you're on top of the world; when you're feeling invincible, when your ideas resonate with the world and the world is flowing through your veins, when each breath is fresh crisp and you feel most alive you are still worse off than an animal drowning in it's own excrement if your being is not centered in love but is centered in self or ambition or lust.

  1. The only love that transcends time...Christ.

    Somehow He is missing from your consummate love triangle.

    I know you know this already!

    Have a great day filled with His love and His presence!
