What is eternal? And more importantly, how does anything becomes eternal?
My recent ponderings took me a walk in the past, where so far I’ve realized this is how it works
You love something, too much, enough to not stop thinking about it
But then, all you do is think, you don’t do anything about it. And so, you would do 1000 other things in your life, but not do that one thing
And you’ll turn 30, 40 and 100, and that thing that you’ve always thought about and never did, or could not do for any reasons, eventually becomes eternal
It stays with you, comes back again and again
Imagine starting something you love, but not finishing it. You’ll spend many moments and decades thinking about it, what ifs, it’ll stay with you in a mystery you never uncovered
And so when you go, you still have that thing you loved, that goes with you, an incomplete wish, an unexplored path, that you always wished to experience
It sounds like a bad thing, and most times it probably is. But if you think it in other ways, it’s not nessaccarily a bad thing. Probably a good thing in disguise
It’s always the things that don’t leave you, or maybe you don’t leave them
And so, are you making eternity?
