A Collection of Thoughts and Works on the Concept of Time.

POSTS

to live in this world you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.

QUOTE OF

THE MONTH

“ i once asked my friends if they’d ever held things that gave them a spooky sense of history. ancient pots with three-thousand-year-old thumbprints in the clay, said one. antique keys, another. clay pipes. dancing shoes from WWII. roman coins i found in a field. old bus tickets in second-hand books.

everyone agreed that what these small things did was strangely intimate; they gave them the sense, as they picked them up and turned them in their fingers, of another person, an unknown person a long time ago, who had held that object in their hands.

 

you don’t know anything about them, but you feel the other person’s there, one friend told me. it’s like all the years between you and them disappear. like you become them, somehow. ”
