• another snippet of who knows what: what makes us happy when we are not. is it people? is it events? is it a new outlook on something? is it hope? i think that sometimes nothing can make you happy, except time in a sense. Time is everything, it is also nothing. Everything good that will happen in your life will take place in due time. Same for the bad. So time is what makes us happy? If you can look at it that way, then yes. I can’t. But I do realize that Time can be the thing that keeps you going. It can’t make you smile when you’re sad, nor lift your head when its down, but it can be the thing that gets you thru. Not the day, not the week, not even the month or year. It’s what gets you thru the time that you are in, the present and however long the present lasts. I guess in a way the present is always, but I don’t look at it that way. The present to me is more like a period of time that you can say fits together. The present ends when a new present begins. It’s like a period in your life. My present right now is one of total confusion. I have some psychological things figured out but not so many physical things. College, where i stand with people, friends, other things of that sort. I think my present also reflects that of the world right now. Much confusion and a lot of transition. Music is in a weird time as well. The ‘pop’ around now, most everyone(music critics) will agree is horrible. Even the stuff on the indie labels isn’t as good. ‘Everyone sounds the same’ i hear all the time. What can you do though? Nothing but wait for this present time of confusion and transition to end and the next present to begin. Let us hope that the next present is one of filled with compassion and happiness for all.
