Eternity Away

Sometimes, we think we have eternity to dwell on a topic, or a life, or a love, or a youth , or many an hour, or voluptuous a minute, but we know.....it's not....or it is?!?!......we just could be less than a dot in the infinity of "time". 

I always share with my frenz...I should say "shared" as I was more zenith when I was younger- kinda like a buddha for some period as some quoted. I always shared with them not to dwell on the minute or the period, as when we looked from an infinity point of view, that stretch of time was really minimal & small & insignificant. What I was trying to say, I guess..:P...., was to encourage them to look past the situation or the moment of torment.

Yet, I have to admit, I always think I have a lotta time. Time to finish a conversation, time to get on with life, time to do something "meaningful", even time to love many times over all over again.......haha. Ummm.

There's this dialogue from this HK movie "Love in a Puff" (mentioned in one of my entries before) - the guy was telling the gal they got a lot of time to finish the topic....I remember someone told me that too. Then,

I somewhat think, why do I like questions - questioning & being questioned so much, as it just shrinks down the time and boil down to the major points. And maybe by that I could find my eternity within non-eternity. Yet, today, I am trying to find back a handwritten doodle from someone, I couldnt locate it. I realize, we dont hv the time, let alone eternity to talk or to explore....let alone questioning & answering.....it's just dissipating with time....

Then I did some search on the oldest cities of the world ie still being inhabited...(I am surprised China isnt in there), when U see, 1000BC, 4000 BC, 9000 BC.......I couldnt but feel amazed at our, indeed, undeniably small & tiny & insignificant being & existence. Who am I to talk about "time" like someone who knows!?!?

And, hence got me to think, sometimes someone would tell you you guyz would have "alotta time" to dwell, and other times someone would tell u, hey dude, we r running out of time. It's kinda ironical, when more U feel it's out of time, things become more intensive in a way......anyhow.....my again bullshitting.

So to reward you, I want to share this link with U, about the 20 oldest cities of the world. It's kinda interesting, and maybe you would plan to spend "time" to head out there.....to feel the "old"ness of the soul of the cities.

And I once watched this movie - despite I couldnt remember a thing about the plot, it stuck in my head - the mood and I got the soundtrack - Eternity and a Day.



It grips my heart everytime I hear this - the loneliness, the eternity....of...etc etc...whatever U put at the etc.
