It is easy to see our lives as the aggregate result
of a game of numbers.
- How man days have passed since our birth?
- How many sunrises have we witnessed
versus sunsets?
- The number of times we have been in love.
- The number of times we've had our hearts broken.
- The number of times when we have done the breaking.
- How many times have we lied to curry favor.
- How many hours have we spent alone in contemplation.
- How many days remain from the day of this writing.
- How much money we need to not have to struggle.
- How many miles have we driven in our cars.
- How many hours have we spent waiting.
- How much debt we carry.
- The number of marriage ceremonies we have attended.
- How many friends have told us about their impending divorce.
- How many days were you truly happy?
What matters?
Only a few things.
When do we discover this knowledge?
What are you thinking of right now?
