The Passage of Time

Filed under: Philosophy

It’s amazing how fast time flies. Here we are, in the middle of July and I feel like I’m still catching up to May. I find it hard to believe that I left Madison just a little over a week ago. It seems like that place is a lifetime away. It’s not change per se, in the sense that it’s something new. More like returning to an old way of being. And yet I miss my friends from there everyday. Pete. Julia. JW. Nick, who became a real friend in need. Käri – I’m sorry we didn’t have more time to do things together. We have so much in common. They are the part of my life I feel is out of place right now. But I am glad that I left. I feel good about my decision to come to Philadelphia. Imam Luqman is a good man. I feel we may have some good things we can do together. It’s good to be here with my brothers as well. It’s never been easy for the three of us to get along like the Partridge Family but perhaps we can grow closer – get to know one another better. I look forward to what Philadelphia has in store for me and what I have in store for myself, as I try to take more control of my life at this juncture. We shall have to wait and see.
