Time


We live, thriving, in the fleeting moment,
constantly striving to capture the next.
Time is a complex, multi-layered, paradoxical phenomenon,
in fact it is a dynamic moment of simultaneous occurrences,
which, in turn, defines the parameters of our reality.
And yet, it remains the most simplistic indefinable manifestation of the state of our mundane affairs.
It’s an orderly chaos in which past, present and future are a mere flash . . .
. . . an everlasting blur.
And thus, it is only outside of the confines of time that one can savor the sweet sublime.
Nevertheless, time remains an enduring testament of His Blessed Oneness.
When one lives with the times, one lives with the Infinite.
