Features: How many years of time can it take to fill this ocean with its ups and downs? How many years of time can it take to erode the rocks into fine sand and spread them evenly beneath my feet? How many years of time can it take to brew such a cool and beautiful night? How many years of time, oh! For this world to wait for our arrival? If, at such moments, one is still unwilling or too afraid to reveal the secrets long kept in their heart, if, while enjoying something, one constantly worries about its impermanence, if, in moments of love and being loved, one constantly calculates when love will cease to flow both ways, then where am I truly enjoying my life? I am merely wasting and crushing it without end.
