Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

QUESTION OF THE WEEK...12-16-2024
Can there be happiness without sadness? Pleasure without pain? Peace without war?
Change is what we notice. If things were always the same, we would never notice anything. The world seems to be changing from mostly peaceful, and mostly progressive to something otherwise. The pendulum swings.
If happiness, pleasure and peace is all you know then you are in nirvana always.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and week. ♥
Would sure be nice to find out. I say YES there is!
ReplyDeleteVery deep question and a good one. I think they come hand in hand
ReplyDeleteThere can be, but if you have the bad, then you appreciate the good more, I think.

ReplyDeleteI've heard you need some darkness to appreciate the light.
