Time is short
Much that once was is fading and what happens now, leads into things that have not yet come to pass. Thus here we stand, everyday at a crossroads of choices, not knowing which one to take. Shall we slack or shall we work? Shall we sing or shall we remain silent? Every choice is a path in life and wither now do we go? Fast and quick decisions we must make.
There will be times when heart is of stone and feet are of lead, when sweat gleam on skins and trickles from head and there we cease at the crossroads, pausing with rest. And indeed when we decide to take a break, we never go on again. Life offers little breaks and let us break wisely when we do.
Now I am basking in joy shall we say, a muddle headed fool of a cloudy brain, whose paths are fogged and unclear and my feet turn here and there according to the will of my mind but my mind sees not and my eyes are blind and they deceive me. I am full of food so consumed and I am weary, simply thinking of the tasks that await me.
A million choices have I from now until tomorrow, where new paths shall be opened but one will be choiceless. Indeed tomorrow I have a test and though it is not the only path I may take, it is the clearest path that I should take.
Ahh..look here now how I have babbled on and on like a twittering fool. I shall end thus for time is precious and sleep is much needed which I cannot get. Time is short and I must hasten. I shall no longer tarry on msn but keep to my tasks...before the end that is tomorrow all must be complete.
Yet even now as I strive to end this, another speaks to me, luring me into the darkness of msn, shutting out the light, drawing me away from my destined path. But it shall not be so this day! I am truly weary. Farewell my dear friends! I depart!
As Gandalf said in the Fellowship of the Rings, "Now you must decide what to do with the time that is given to you."
So be it.
