Time -- its many paths, its temporariness, its movement, its stillness, its erasure (or non-existence of), its forgiveness, its many windows -- has been a common theme in this blog, and I often bewilder myself if I think about it too much.
It seems that, because of time, only one little thing needs to happen to catalyze an entire chain of reactions. Although I have plans, I think it's important to realize that whatever I thought I was going to do tomorrow could change in an instant. In fact, there are things I'm doing in this very moment that I didn't dream of a month ago. And all it took was a little snap!
And with every passing second, new existence.
So even when I make an improv that I really loathe, I still think, "I did that. It didn't exist before, but now it does. Because of me."
That wasn't supposed to sound as self-important as it may have come off, but if you think about all the things you do and have made, or the ways that you've impacted other people... kind of puts things into a different perspective.
