It's been just over two years since I last wrote here... so a considerable water has passed under the proverbial bridge, and as I await a dissertation chapter review, a few taps on this electro-static touch pad - finds me here.
A lot has transpired in the last two years: A couple of trips back home, family matters, attempt at a possible hitch, relocated friends,friends lost, change of address (two), and last but not the least - actual sighting of the light at the end of this academic tunnel. However, the fact that I can't get myself to is this passage of time. The catalyzing event that lead me here was an email I sent out to a good friend after a passage of more than 2.5 years!
We are taught from the get go about the value of this time and how it cannot be recovered and what not... However, what NO one attempts to divulge is - how to deal with this passage ? Is there a preset form of autonomous reaction we are supposed to undergo, when the sudden realization hits us ? I am going to try and put together a "Users Manual" for the same... and towards that end, while I put together the same, comments and input are invited from anyone who may want to contribute to the same.
To quote Seneca: "Veritum dies aperit" (Time discovers the truth).
I just feel, this time around - prudence dictates haste.
Cheers!
