For What Its Worth.
i havent written anything for a while, more than a month now. Not sure why, been busy perhaps, abit lazy, abit busy, abit lazy.
ive been thinking about the saying 'time waits for no one'. Its one of those cliche's that just gets thrashed like any cricket team playing Australia at the moment. It wasnt like i read it in a book or stumbled across it in an article, for some reason i just started to think about it.
As humans we can stop alot of things, and we have alot of power, but one thing we cant touch is time. Time will go on, no matter what we do or say or think or create or destroy or believe. Time doesnt care, it isnt a compassionate psychologist longing to here our groans and frustrations. its personless.
This got me thinking about who i want to be. Unforunately this sounds terribly cliched and perhaps meaningless, but who am i to become? Who am i to become in three weeks or twenty years? What is in me now that i dont like and want to get rid of? What am i doing to get rid of it?
Floatism, the human art of floating, is the ability of humanity to float through life.
Floatism has this devastating effect of wasted time, where people 'spend' time without actually realising their 'spending time'.
Humanity repeats it over and over again.
For some reason i dont want to be a victim.

Beware the thieves of time (http://www.greatcircle.com.au/2006/07/31/time-thieves/ )!
You've only scratched the surface of who God created you to be. Don't let the Thief rob you of any of it. At the same time, don't get caught up in drivenness: if you nail your goals in a week, the rest of the time is play time, which is just as important for who you are.
God bless your intentionality richly, bro!

"i've wasted so much time" -
skillet have been haunting me with their lyrics...then we waste further time sitting in a state of 'down'ness' listening to johnny tell us so. strange.
--
i thought that was in a 'the wedding' song- time waits for no-one. drove me nuts just then, only i checked all their lyrics and apparently its not... think i got confused with 'but a breath'.
btw. how dodge is polarity in the sense of it being by 'the wedding'. it 'so differnt to their style. they should have just started a new thang all together i mean with all the member changes too. oh well.
'cool hand luke' are cool, just discoverd them =]
