The price of anything…

Seconds change to minutes,
Minutes to hours,
Hours to days,
Days to years,
Life goes on,
One moment at a time
Till you cant tell time.
After all what is “time” but relativity…

What you call a day is a collection of minutes that can also be summed as a collection of seconds. Which is questionable since we just decided to have a unit.

You can say it’s a new day but it is still yesterday somewhere in this very same earth.

One can use time as a common scale, but is it not important to realize that you are but measuring an unmeasurable thing. For how can we measure life with units of time. Would it not be better instead to sum it with the memories, the good times being the best measure of life, for anything other than happiness only causes a decrease in the life of life.

“The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it ” ~ Henry David Thoreau.

Are we not doing the same with every little thing that comes our way in life? Exchange bits of life? For what is life but every breath, and what is every breath but a moment gone by. A moment you can not replace or return in its entirety. So, it is but life that we exchange for every memory, every minuscule second. I could try to explain in a million words but nothing would suffice one much more than the necessity of realization itself. It is only thirst that can be quenched. [ I made that up, b t w]

This moment is costing me :)

And it’s definitely costing you…
how much life are you willing to exchange for each moment that is rushing towards you to become a loving & lovely memory
