(no subject)
My eyes droop and I begin to reflect on events of the day. What I did, what I said, who I conversed with. It's all so irrevelant- the people I see on a day to day basis are but a step in the hike that is my life. They are the here...the now...but they will not be the tomorrow. Have you ever had a connection with someone that although they are important presently, in the grand scheme of things, you won't continue to know them? I know that those who are vitally important to me, those who I care deeply about will remain in my life. But what about the rest? I laugh, joke, kiss, hug those people and yet I know that 5 years from now they will be a distant memory...simply a picture in the album. How is it that the here and now seems so permanant? That even though it is not hard to look into the future, it's hard to picture exactly who will be surrounding us when that picture comes.
Is it better to live in the present, or prepare everyday for the future?
