Some magical thoughts on the nature of our world and the human experience and oh to heck with it, just whatever I feel like writing about :)

G-d and Time

I have heard that a kind word can mean so much; sometimes, it's true.
And they say that only time will tell, but how do I learn to hear her?
For lo, she speaks within me, through my actions and my thoughts, laid out upon a dusty line.
And through my changing countenance, changing body, growing mind.
But also she resides outside, changing people, buildings, Earth.
Through ever-changing space she flies, taking me with her; I cannot let go or change her course. Or can I?
And for all who say you must be strong, beautiful, charismatic to stand out in life,
I'd say that she is all these things, just not in the way you might think.

Perhaps she is G-d's prized creation, or even part of G-d Herself.
I cannot separate the two, though G-d is much more than just this dimension.
But each second that passes has a spark of holiness, a bit of magic, as it was and now is not...but yet still is.
Just as Hashem once said, "I will be what I am becoming".
So too, the essence of time: perhaps G-d's essence is like pixie dust within it.
If it doesn't stand the test of time, it will fall, crumble, dissolve; but who's to say that time has this power? Could it be our own lack of power instead?

The truth I believe only G-d knows, but we cannot know it all.
For if we did, we would be as G-d, and G-d is one, yet infinitely unknowable.
