I Am Mine…

The North is to South what the clock is to time
There’s east and there’s west and there’s everywhere life
I know I was born and I know that I’ll die
The in between is mine
I am mine

I believe life always happens in the here and now, and I am obsessed with the ephemeral nature of time. Each hour, minute, or second is nothing but a final deadline for us to do the best we can in the time we are given. To enjoy each fleeting day without anxiously paining about tomorrow. I believe we all have a destiny in the sense that everything happens only once, and could never be re-lived the same way as before. Only we can bear responsibility for the paths we follow.

Herein lies a map to the roads I travel.
