Self-forgetfulness

At the core of all human activities is self-forgetfulness, as a device for dealing with the temporal nature of our lives.

Life

In your thirties, you believe that life is still in front of you;
In your forties, you still believe that, but a suspicion starts to creep in;
In your fifties, you are wondering where it’s gone.

Sleep

He slept through all his days. He was working the night shift.

Expiration date

Everything has an expiration date, except – time.

Hope

All we can hope for in this life is to die on time.

Fortune

Good fortune is measured in minutes, the bed one – in centuries.

Toy

Man is just a toy, wound-up at birth, without a possibility to be wind-up again.

My older sister, who left the house when she was 17 since we were poor, is also one of the great philosophers of our time. Every time I call her, I hear the following sentence, as an answer to the simple question: “How are you?”. The answer always is, invariably: “(We are) working, sleeping, and waiting for time to pass by”.

Don’t waste your time!

The time given to us is the only real possession that we have on this green Earth: don’t waste it and don’t let it slip through your fingers!!

Everything takes time: it even takes time to understand this simple fact and not be hasty in life.
