An Amber Moment…
“Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment. There is no why.”
― Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse – Five
As humans our natural instinct is to search and articulate “the why.” Yet when amber is observed with our human eye we are in awe of it’s unique property of preserving a physical moment in time, exactly and forever.
Unlike amber, the awe of such timepieces is that of human design and creativity. For me it is a visual cue that our time is up … “But I have two minutes left, I will use all the time that belongs to me.”…tick, tick tick… I ask myself, “WHY isn’t there more time?” There is no “more” or “less” time…according to amber!
Note to self; “make sure brain gets the memo!”
Good night … Sweet dreams XO
