Keeping your head wide open.
My friend Vince over at Vinceland loaded up a great post today on altering perceptions, the ephemeral nature of knowledge, and a few other choice bits. Here’s a little quote:
Our lives, laws, morals and traditions are built on the idea that the past and future exist outside of the present and that which we have control over is only the future. We record and remember the past. We look forward and work towards a better future. But we live teetering on the thinnest edge of good and evil that we consider NOW, now, now.
Now that sort of fits in with something I’ve read in the past two days that goes something like (sorry for my vagueness, I really can’t remember) “History doesn’t repeat itself, it isn’t even gone.” And if no one else can take claim for that phrase I’ll gladly collect my 200 bucks and pass Go.
