river of deceit..


 

“as your perspective of the world increases not only is the pain it inflicts on you less but also its meaning. understanding the world requires you to take a certain distance from it. ... throughout our childhood and teenage years, we strive to attain the correct distance to objects and phenomena. we read, we learn, we experience, we make adjustments. then one day we reach the point where all the necessary distances have been set, all the necessary systems have been put in place. that is when time begins to pick up speed. it no longer meets any obstacles, everything is set, time races through our lives, the days pass by in a flash and before we know that is happening we are forty, fifty, sixty... meaning requires content, content requires time, time requires resistance. knowledge is distance, knowledge is stasis and the enemy of meaning.”

pioneer to the falls..




irony of the shortest month and never-ending winter smuggles its way through each year. 
along with that sneaky feeling of waiting while time doesn't stand still.
