"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." J.R.R. Tolkien


It’s the strangest phenomenon
To pass through life believing that every morning harkens
Another day to go down as
Another square on the calendar of mundanity
When in a hundred years
Students will nap on textbooks illustrating what it was that defined your world
Scholars will scrutinize the smallest details of your tell-tale journal to make sense of your life
They will marvel at the evanescent beauty of the human experience
Inspiring another generation of artists and writers
You will be a window to a past they never knew and will never truly understand.
