late night philosophical meanderings
[i wrote this out early early this morning... 316 AM to be exact... it was a pretty intense epiphany of sorts for me, so i thought i'd share. btw, does anyone ever check this anyway??]
anyway.
it always amazes me how quickly things change. i forget often that not many things remain stable, that everything is constantly changing and shifting.
i guess i've been pretty lucky to have had such a stable childhood, from when we immigrated to the states, up until high school or so. i often take for granted the past, because at some level i believe now will always be like this.
i forget that everything has an expiration date. this is something i must remember in order to appreciate the current timeframe, because i don't seem to do that.
which means all things must come to an end, feelings, thoughts, relationships, situations. this is the way of nature. even it if takes months, years, whatever, everything eventually fades...
because when something ends, something else must eventually take its place. it could be sudden, it could be gradual, but nonetheless things must change. this is the way of nature.

DAMN. hmmm...
despite the fact that those elements listed previously are no longer active players in my life, remnants of them remain within me, and they will undoubtedly stay there always. their influence has been so great and powerful that the presence of them has ultimately altered my being, shaping who i was and who i am. their memory remains. those i have yet to meet will ultimately shape who i will become.
wow. can you imagine who the next s. will be? the next tevy or stephen? the next tatay? goddamn that's fucking trippy as hell...
DAMN. makes me think: what will the next great adventure in my life be?
