dark and backward abysm of time

"What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time?"....... "To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing"

Name:

"where there is love, nothing is too much trouble and there is always time"

In my shoes

So yep its been quite a while... we've gone into next year infact. So here's the inspiration, just a few lines of poetry...

' here is the deepest secret nobody knows
here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;
which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart
i carry it in my heart'

watched 'in her shoes' with the mo and paw paw (as she would rather not be known)..very spontaneous decision to catch a show..i'm glad we did.It was nice watching a movie again after so long, its really been ages...and these lines really stayed with me.
Been thinking alot about feet and shoes...prolly coz my feet have been killing me the past few days...heels have never been good news...heightened pain, that's all it is. But yet, time and again, my own logic fails me when i'm deciding which pair to slip on when i'm late in the mornings. Vanity plus lateness results in lameness - interpret that any way u like.
I need to go for a proper pedicure...when u think so much on ur feet, they deserve to be pampered.
There isnt much time for introspection or idle pondering these days..(welcome to the working world my mom would say)...sometimes its depressing, after having that much free time - the luxury of it all, being accountable to nooone but myself and having all that time to spend the way i liked, entirely as i wished. Luxury is a notion which reveals itself in retrospect. Now any time i have to myself, i want to catch up on sleep or catch up with friends & family. Often I'm torn between the 2.
But there's something fulfilling at the end of the day, despite the exhaustion, over and above it. I just hope that will sustain me. Coz when that runs out, i'll know i'm running low on fuel.
Ok how's that for a come-back blogpost.... yea fine,not great, but hey its a start!and i hope there'll be more to come!

Toodlooo..
