“Suddenly, to my great dismay I realized I had fallen short, while time had likewise drawn short. Opportunities missed because I let fear captain the ship to lesser seas. Relationships that evaporated because I chose other places to be and other pursuits to pursue. Doors that closed because the hallway was all too familiar. Moments missed because my mind became too easily mesmerized by the pablum of lesser things. Time gone and the repercussions of those choices swept away to a place from which they will never be retrieved nor altered in the retrieving. Indeed, I have fallen short. But then I caught the thief of negativity as he snuck stealthy around the periphery of my soul. Catching a fleeting glimpse of him, I grabbed him as never before and said, “You will not have your way with me. I must somehow rebel with enough force to set history back on its feet, position the present to run forward, and send the thief into exile.” And so, I asked myself, “What have I done despite what the thief would attempt to convince me of?” Opportunities that were seized. Relationships that held tight and thrived in the holding. Hallways that were left and doors that were walked through. Moments that were captured and lovingly held once they had fulfilled their duty and bid me farewell. Time spent, but not entirely wasted in the spending. And then, what about the time that’s left? History is gone, but the present is history in the making…and therefore I will make it great. And so, I may have fallen short but my stride remains long, time is yet with me, and the future is a blank page for which I have a fresh pen. Yes, I have fallen short at times. But now I will leap long.”

“That was the problem with ones actions. They would always remain ‘acted’. They always remained ‘being done’, and their influence on the world, whether small or big , would always be palpable. You couldn't refute the past. He would always remain liable for the consequences of his actions. Should anyone knock on his door and ask for reparation, he would give what was asked of him without question. There simply was no way of clearing the world of its history, and its history was simply a compilation of the existence of people and other organisms , and their actions. Of things which had been done.”
