Aurora Borealis from Chena Hot Springs.
It was near to midnight and the sky was clear with subzero temperatures in fahrenheit, and this completed the "my day"

A letter to time

Dear time,

Why do you seem to creep when we least want you to, and why do you run when we chase you so? You are like a person, giving me a sense of hope and security with your leniency, however also being cruel in the harshness of reality.

This past summer felt like a breeze, not a midsummer's breeze that cools the air, nor the breeze that sweeps the grass free of pollen and dust. Nay, for that is not the breeze meant. At an instance, the 3 months are now past and gone, the memories will seem to fade away to only a recollection of words and pictures for only few to know.

Though it has been only a few hours past, I feel that I want this summer to go on. Not the temperature though, only the experience. It is interesting to think in retrospect, to get to know what we missed as an experience, to learn and discover knowledge and more.

Working. Learning. Coding. Making mistakes. Feeling down. Frustrated. Slacking. Enthusiastic. Motivating. Discovering. Experiencing.

As humans, we err and we err more. From that we learn, but also forget and is reminded, and forget again. As humans we want when we are not given, and when it is given, it is not wanted. For that is what we are.

Oh, time. Let us enjoy this moment, precious as it is, let us have this reverie.
