…now it’s 10:15 p.m. and I’m taking this time, sitting in bed with my writing pad and a cool glass of Chardonnay, just for me. Besides my morning prayers, I so rarely have time alone. This feels good.
Perhaps these hectic days will teach me to cherish and savor every wonderful moment of my life. And to enjoy every not-so-wonderful moment. Because each one passes into all eternity, never to return.
If there was no time before this life, and there is no time beyond this life, and if God knows the end from the beginning, and if time is of no essence to Him, then is the time just passed actually past or is it still part of the before, now and future? Does all time exist in a before/during/after state? So that one moment past has also not yet occurred?
Maybe I’m just tired. Too tired. Regardless, back to my original thought:
I need to cherish every moment. Especially the good and wonderful and joyful moments, the complete and fulfilling and fulfilled moments. Because whether or not time was/is/will be, there is no doubt that my experience of that moment will never occur again.

I tend to view time as spherical with the Passion of Jesus in the center.
so does that mean you think they keep occurring over and over again?
