One more year has folded and faded, and another new year is coming to bloom.
Curtain down on 2015 and curtain up for 2016.
A tear for the falling night, and many laughter for the rising dawn.
Time is seamless, fault lines are mental constructs.
Past, present and future are one ceaseless flow.
Past modified in the present is future.
Future is in the past and past is in the future.
Past and future are in the present.
Nay, there is only the present.
The present is focused action.
Purposeful attention is focused action.
Attention is self consciousness.
Purpose is overflowing of self consciousness.
Self consciousness is bliss.
Bliss is purposeful action.
Blissful engaged action is freedom.
Freedom is being oneself - In the midst of the tragic-comic medley of events.
Let that freedom ring loud and clear in the dawn of 2016.
