You Reap What You Sow

Time, the fourth dimension. Time created order. Order begot logic. Logic is the sixth sense.

At the auspice it would appear that Time and Logic could exist within society as pillars of knowledge and reason. However what society could not have realized is the ever evolving complexities associated with such realms of thought. Both Time and Logic have seemingly metastasized well beyond their original conceptions. However, one should not infer that their evolutions were congruent. 

Time is based on a simple concept. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The equivalent of one day. Days were then grouped into weeks and weeks into months and months into years. Within these groups patterns emerged in weather and harvest. Today this is considered common knowledge. While the Earth's Rotation is about one day and Earth's Orbit around the Sun is approximately 364.25 days; What about a day on another planet? Einstein's Theory of Relativity requires both that one's experience is only relative to their existence and that Time and Space are to be considered one in the same. How can something so simple as observing the Earth's rotation relative to the Sun could give rise to the beginnings of comprehending the very fabric of our existence? 

Logic is one's ability to make a decision. Decisions one makes based on their sensory experience are to be considered logical. The decisions one makes will inevitably dictate the course of one's life. The ability to learn from experience is a natural progression amongst many in the animal kingdom. The ability to learn and retain experiences allows for even greater honing of one's logical skill. Recognizing that storing experiences for others is a necessity language was evolved to include writing. Logic also gave rise to mathematics. Mathematics thrives on the ability to make decisions. The need to make decisions faster gave rise to calculators and calculators are to be consider the first decision engines. Logic is the backbone of modern computer programming. Whether or not one believes that an abacus or a slide rule is the first computer does not erode the fact that our need to make decisions and store the results of those decisions have fueled a continued thirst for knowledge, which has resulted in modern humans everyday interfacing with such decision precipitating devices. 

So Logically, if time was never conceived, How could one be in the right place?

Timing is fucking everything

It only takes one. At least that's what my mother always told me. "It only takes one. "

Right girl wrong time, Right time wrong girl, I guess that's how it's going to go for a while. Lightning strikes maybe once, maybe twice.

Life is nothing but a series of adjustments. Once you finally figure out how to juggle what you have, another ball gets thrown into the mix and you're caught trying to learn the process all over again.

It's a mad world we live in, you know. There's so many moving parts to it that you can spend all your days trying to figure out just one facet of this incredible system. And so it goes day by day and night by night. Our hearts yearn for something that we do not know.

We want so desperately to be loved for what we love about ourselves that we are in a mad rush to find it. I think that's when you know you've found someone special. When they can love you half as much as you love you -- see you as you want to be seen.

I can sit here and discuss the paradoxes of love until I am weak in the knees, but I will try and contain myself.  To get it we must give it, and to give it means opening up the castle gates. Do you invite opportunity when it means risking everything? I think so. I think it's worth it. At least I want to believe that.

Maybe to share that ineffable emotion with somebody is hardly gazing into each others eyes and finding the answers, maybe it's about standing shoulder to shoulder looking forward, and sharing the same vision.

But then again, what do I know? I'll have to get back to you. I've got work to do.
