Entry: The passage of time Wednesday, October 10, 2007



It is the small things that bring home the fact that I am growing older. Like having to punch my age into one of the machines when I go to the gym. Or when someone said, "I will love you forever", and I knew that nothing really lasts forever.

I did find the poem I had been looking for -


Time Zones

I willed my love to dream of me last night, that we might lie
at peace, if not beneath a single sheet, under one sky.
I dreamed of her but she could not alas humour my will;
it struck me suddenly that where she was was daylight still.

--Vikram Seth
