Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how time is finite.

The moments that we have on earth, the memories that we have, the seconds that flow by… Everything is finite.

You think that the moments will roll and everything will come and go infinitely – but it’s not true; all of it is part of a set of flowing sands flowing through glass crevices into a pile that lies down below, and whether we like it or not, these moments will one day all fade away as we hit inescapable limits, bound by biology, time, and energy.

We have all the reason to make every minute worth it.

Every ounce of energy earn something.

Every part of our minds, our cognitions, our planning yield some sort of meaningful and measurable benefit to our happiness, our joy, our wallets, and everything in between.

As the year comes to an end, it’s strange to see – my energy has multiplied, my peace has come closer, and I am moving forward faster than I ever have, with so little compunction or fear that it’s interesting to watch someone who seems to be of a different body and mind than the person who had been here before.

There are many good things that I feel about who I am and who I will become, and I look forward to seeing where things will go 🙂

A Small Project

A small thing that not everyone might have noticed is this: I’ve lost about 8kg from November till now (we started at 79kg), or 5.7, if you’re looking at the first recorded picture in which I started tracking my journey. I like the idea of weight loss, and how it […]

NEED FOR SPEED

Some people like rhythm games; other people like FPS and getting good at their craft.  I like some of these things in different ways as well, but there’s one thing that I find somewhat unique to myself and that I thought I’d share about today: I like learning how to […]

Life’s Fleeting Nature

In this life I’ve spent on earth, it’s begun to occur to me that nature’s love language may be irony. Were it not so, it would seem strange that I should have written about life just the other day… Only to have it very nearly taken away from me. I […]

How Will You Feel About Life?

When you think of this life from somewhere beyond, in the years that come by, the days you won’t remember, how will you feel about it? Will you remember it all as a distant dream from far away whose images and memories seem foreign to you? A thrashing in the […]
