chew on this (thought of the day thread)

[arunima das]

Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!
Look to this Day!
For it is Life, the very Life of Life.
In its brief course lie all the
Verities and Realities of your Existence.
The Bliss of Growth,
The Glory of Action,
The Splendor of Beauty;
For Yesterday is but a Dream,
And To-morrow is only a Vision;
But To-day well lived makes
Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,
And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.
Look well therefore to this Day!
Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!

I guess I should post this, since it is the thought of the day thread.

Just a few days ago, I was just thinking, nothing in particular. I started day-dreaming and thinking about the RP's here on BYC. Then, it sort-of hit me. I spend more time in dream-land, thinking of a fake life, than I do in the real world, with the life I really have. I guess what I'm trying to say is that people, nowadays, spend so much of their time on Video games, tv, the internet, (Not that I'm dissing that stuff!) that they practically spend zero of their time with friends and family. They spend ther time living in the "fake" world, than rather in the real one. They try to make their "Character" more perfect, than their own self.

So, I know I'm not really good with words, but you can probably understand what I'm trying to say.

But let there be spaces in your togetherness and let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. ~ khalil gibran~

I think I do do that…why else would I have slept, then woken up at one, go on BYC, and then go back to sleep.
