Menelaos Kanakis
Would we have the wisdom not to repeat our mistakes by stop being mere observers of our own lives and acquire the courage to love so much that we end up hating on hate and anger, disallowing these emotions to feed on the precious time given to us?
Would we have the humility to stop being so selfish that we squander the gift of life and to remember that humans are a true treasure because they are the ones that attach meaning to all things and not the other way ’round?
Would we maintain our childlike maturity so that we infuse our life with joy and meaning?
Would we stand by our choices or betray them during the first tempest?
Would we acknowledge the fact that our senses provide us with the ability to feel life and not to waste it?
Would we dare to love eros and fall in love with love and be the ones who keep their beauty in our lives?
Would we realize that destination is not the goal but only a part of the journey and growing old and tired is not a matter of biology but a mere approach to life ?
Would we realize that what matters is not how long we live but what we do with the time we’re offered?
As it is not time that goes away but us going through time?
