coma induced time travel

Aug 31, 2006 09:39

Recently i thought to myself that I keep observing my life as a point in time. That is, I see myself at a particular point in the fated story of my life. But i realized, i don't have anything to judge what the rest of my life will be like. I haven't travelled to the future. All my feelings of fate are just results of my imagination coupled with my ( Read more... )

I think you are right about who we look for when we fall in love.

yeah we do look for someone i think (sorry to answer it like a girly). a constant thought partner. so you can plot with each others eyes across a room... or something not so sinister. hah. but i dont think not being with someone constitutes being alone at all. i do think we are mammals and we look for a mate constantly though.

time is one of those difficult ones, it's something we constantly measure, but it's something that is immeasurable, there is no definite or finite start/end. it's obsessive how we measure it, i guess because (oh here we go wank wank) it's the existential dilemma of when our "time" is going to end.

for example, it's like measuring age. we measure it by years but is that an accurate measure? when we measure time we are measuring a measurement? gah, it's hard to articulate.

in closing, this is why i like circles. it's the closest to infinity i can grasp.

how do you relate your life to a circle though?

sandysue August 31 2006, 13:36:22 UTC

i don't. apparently the article/theorist escapes me, artists deal with about 5 motifs during their life. one of mine, that is certain is a circle. that is all i know for now. perhaps it will unravel when i find my next four motifs.

the great motif quest continues...

oh also, James and I were thinking and he states that time is the only thing that is not an object. as in, light, speed sound etc can be measured through sight, vibration, resonation, velocity.

unrelated (or perhaps related quite well)....another thing to ponder; the absence of the body. that has always intrigued me.

There is so much reading involved.

Make it into a fucking cartoon or finish your posts with "by J.R.R. Tolkein"
