Welcome to Spring! :)

Spring: Pretty Flowers, Happy Animals... all kinds of things that make girls like me happy! Playing guitar outside time has come! Oh, how I long for this time year round! It's an amazing feeling, knowing that everyone in hearing range can hear you... Sometimes scary, but other times you are like "I HOPE someone heard that!!!" This time of year, you just long for a tree to climb, and a great book to sit up there and read! Camp outs in your back yard are great fun too! Hiking, bike riding, horse back riding, running, all these fun things you can do! Some you can do year round, but others are just way better in spring! Weren't the "April Showers" worth it? Look around you. Gorgeous things are popping up everywhere! God has blessed us with vision to see His wonderfull creation. And I think this time of year our eyes should be peeled more than usuall for something new and exciting that wasn't there, or we didn't notice last year.
Now that excitement has passed I would like to take this time to talk about something that has been on my mind for the last few days. "Everyone ready?.... Drum roll please!!..." "Time." Now, you may be thinking "Time? Really? Time? Seriously... how complex is that? 60sec = 1min, 60min = 1 hour, How hard is it?" I know... I know, it's pretty ridiculous. But it is kind of weird if you think about it. Why can't we just stay in one time period for ever? Have you ever felt that way? You just wanted to repeat something over, and over, and over again? And what is this about "Present"? It is this slow line that moves along on the scale of time. Can't go forward or back after you pass it. You are constricted to this skinny line called "Present". And there are weird sayings... like "This is now, it's a gift that's why it's called the 'Present'." That is so creepy... Seriously gives me the willies. If it's the "Present" as in "Gift form" That is the scariest thing alive! Some things aren't happy. Is it just me or aren't "Gifts" supposed to be happy? What happens if you are dying this slow, and painfull death. Do you want someone to come up and say "It's a GIFT! That's why it's called the PRESENT!" No, of course not! Who would? That is just one of my pet peeves... I mean yes, sometimes it feels pretty good, and you never want to leave this "Present". But we don't get to decide when we leave, or even if we get here. Do you see how complex this is now? This is just one of the main questions. Maybe I will update this  blog at a later date... or continue it on a different one. But for now, I hope you have enjoyed the happiness on Spring, and the questions on Time. Thanks for reading! Please subscribe! Your faithfull writter- A J

  1. the present is supposedly an amount of time so small that you can't measure it. The shortest measurement of time is, "how long it takes for the fastest thing to happen" I claim this to be the "present" as you are always moving from the past into the future, this movement must be instantaneous.
    btw, your font is really hard to read.

  2. I have to agree with you, your claims of the "present" seem very well thought out! Kudos.
    I'm sorry that you don't like it. What do you suppose I change it to? I didn't want my blog to be normal, in any way. So, I am unwilling to move to something such as "Times new Roman" or "Arial" This font is actually very legible to some of the things that I was thinking about.
