it is a fantasy that floats through my mind when take the same route to walk...when i see the same trees ...the same bushes...the road...the rocks....it wonder if these things do not exist in time...for me my added memory and perception ttell me i go there for the fortieth time...i walk there... i exist in time...but what about that rock...does it exist...in time...i know i am not very clear...but ...i have come to know time...with my existence...i exist...we exist...we exist in time...like ...bergsons accumalation...although i did not go through his complete philosophy...do i go and meet the day...that has already been prepared...not to enter into determinism...it is majorly with time i am concerned...the ripples have already spanned and intermingled have they...forgive me if i become inarticulate
