Fractions of Seconds....
It’s strange the way things work out, the way events taint your perceptions, the way one look from someone can make you feel like the queen of hearts or the jack of none. People change, places change, view points shift, hell civilizations fall. Stars are born every day, life is created and universes are destroyed in fractions of seconds. And yet life strangely goes on. To quote John Hammond, “Life finds a way”. It rains today like it’ll never stop, and tomorrow dawns bright and sunny. Somewhere a hurricane passes leaving a trail of destruction, chaos and death in its wake and in another place a baby is born, life is created. There exists a balance of very strange kind in the universe, unknown to us, unexplained to us, incomprehensible by us. Every day someone falls in love and someone crash lands out of it. Somewhere war ravages humanity and in another place humanity celebrates peace. All in a fraction of a second, in different universes. And yet something upsets the balance and it’s never the same again. Life goes on, but everything is different. Like a kaleidoscope, turn it and a different picture takes form in front of your eyes. And yet it’s all so relative, so open to interpretation, so crystal clear, yet so encrypted. It’s the same kaleidoscope, with the same pieces of paper in it, but on twist and the form they make changes. The pieces shuffle creating something different, something that never again goes back to the original form. The alteration is so deep and different that nothing of the original remains and you sit and wonder what the hell happened. Like I mentioned earlier, people change, places change, view points shift, civilizations fall, all in fractions of seconds, and over millennia of years. Change is instaneous, yet it’s the slowest process that happens. You can wake up feeling at the top of the world and go to bed feeling like the scum of the world.
