3:27 p.m. Note the time. It’s important. The only way to know for sure that this moment isn’t the last. The only proof we have that here is not there. Now is not then or when.

 

Note the time. Even if there’s nothing left to say that hasn’t already been said. No new thoughts, no new insights. If it seems as though nothing matters, maybe nothing matters?

 

I’d like to fast-forward to the being happy part.

To the finding someone worthy part.

To the feeling fulfilled part.

To the not waiting part.

To the not cynical part.

To the not wounded part.

To the not being dead part.

 

And just like that, note the time when positive becomes the absence of negative, which is not the same thing.
