eternal thoughts

constipate me not with ideas

they are shallow.

truncate me not with concepts

they are transient.

suffocate me not with isms,

they are fleeting.

bury me not with examples,

they are ephemeral.

deceive me not with actions,

they are evanescent.

trouble me not with beliefs,

they are temporal.

deafen me not with definitions,

they always fade.

terrorise me not with theories,

they are transient.

but…

touch my soul and being,

instruct me with timeless words,

exhort me with antique expostulations;

illuminate me with eternal light,

counsel me with immortal ideas,

because…

my core is TIMELESS!

The belief, theories, concept, philosophies of man can only last for man in the world because they are fading words, but the unfading words that touches the mind and souls takes one to eternal life, it keeps one moving and remain who the creator wants him to be,because the journey of man is timeless.

    1. Good point. The ability to make the distinction between the ephemeral and the eternal is the main purpose of being alive. Putting emphasis on the correct choice between the two defines one’s humanity and the future awaiting one in the endless eternity.
