The Forgetting Time

He thought of Arjuna, begging the Hindu god Krishna to show him reality: “Reality, the fire of a thousand suns simultaneously blazing forth in the sky.”

Adding this to my quote collection

“But we can’t forget about now, Noah. The moment we’re in. The life we’re in. That’s more important. We can’t forget that.”

You Only Live Once. That’s what people said, as if life really mattered because it happened only one time. But what if it was the other way around? What if what you did mattered more because life happened again and again, consequences unfolding across centuries and continents? What if you had chances upon chances to love the people you loved, to fix what you screwed up, to get it right?

This is why I'm not afraid. It's not loved and lost- we will meet again in this life or another.
