Time is recorded to calculate our paychecks and to determine how long the commute will take us to wrk. If you are smart, you will also record the time of your first kiss with the one you love.
We can tell the date of our birth, but how many of us know the time?
One jazz musician name his hit song "6:00 AM" to immortalize the birth of his daughter.
Life takes us on a journey. It is not how long you go on your journey, but how you spend the time you are given while you are here.
Time is a boundary between the past and the future, between yesterday and today. Time reveals to us what we have enjoyed and it also leaves us with a memory ("suitcase of memories") of things that cannot be destroyed.
If we have no clock, we mark time with sunrise and sunset -- the day begins and the day ends. But love has no ending. It's super power lasts forever.
Music touches our hearts. Many musicians record other musician's songs. These covers are also acts of love.
Cyndi Lauper wrote the above song with Rob Hyman.
The philosopher Nietzsche wrote:
“I shall return, with this sun, with this earth, with this eagle, with this serpent – not to a new life or a better life or a similar life:
I shall return eternally to this identical and self-same life, in the greatest things and in the smallest, to teach once more the eternal recurrence of all things,
to speak once more the teaching of the great noon-tide of earth and man, to tell of the Übermensch [Superman] once more…”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra, The Convalescent
