What If?

"What if this is all there, is " he asked thoughtfully.  

Not meaning to dash her hopes or squash her dreams, he ventured forth again, this time a bit more direct...

"What if this is all there is

nothing more 

nothing less.

is it enough

this life,

this time

this present moment..."

Looking around, she considered his question and came to the conclusion that life is all about perception at the end of the day. One man's trash; another man's treasure and all that.

:: ah... what an interesting and fascinating piece of writing... personally, i like to think of life as a series of moments... melting into each other... and forming something surreal and profound... a celebration of unique experiences perhaps... or an array of grief-stricken heartsongs... depending on which moment is currently unraveling... :P

:: thank you for giving me food for thought, dear alisa... :)

My answer would be that all we really have is this moment, right now as each day we are given a gift, a
'present' if you will... yesterday is gone, never to return and tomorrow is not yet.

If you really think about it, it's true.

He is a wise one, indeed.
