Speed of birthdays by (me!) ~topps #haiku @writeousmom



Accelebrations
compression algorithms
birthdays zip file by.....

at a faster pace;
plan into experience;
into memory.....

***
.... speed of light...     ...speed of sound....     ....speed of birthdays...


everyone old enough knows..   life goes by faster each passing year.  mathematically it is easy to see:



circle representing your life lived to date   4 years old/out of 4 years old;  14 years out of 14 years..    each slice representing one year..   and they become smaller, closer together; smaller, closer together

so it doesn't just 'feel' like birthdays are arriving more quickly; they actually are.

   -for this reason, i love playing with the words accelerate/celebrate;  accelebrations.    a perfect fit!

and, because i am aware we can't contain/retain/access every memory; occasions become bullet points/highlights only in our accessible memory..     i appreciate compression algorithms and zip files for analogies   [remember long ago i shared how time is the best editor in the universe!]

and, i did intend to write "only two!" haiku's yesterday, but..    after bulk of my cleaning was done, -delighted in puzzling together two more..

i am having so much fun..

in Jesus name..     amen.


... and speaking of..    we've come across 'the history of the world in two hours'   -which, write up there with darwin/origin of the species..    causes a certain recoiling internally for me..

my bullshit radar alarms..  and i look forward to pointing out just how:

FALSE  * INCORRECT  * UTTERLY FICTION many of these stories/theories are..

but i can internally 'feel'   -a self-writeous attitude; a fleshly attitude, and so, 

i do let that all boil..     via prayer, let the self-writeous/fleshly attitudes have their say, in my mind, unshared publicly, and via prayer, after those have bubbled up into vapors, and my thoughts/positions/attitude are more pure, if you will..    or 'in alignment' with God, 

then i know i can write truths, clearly, kindly, respectfully minus the bad attitudes.

so i am working this through before i attack.     /she says with a smile...

in Jesus name,   amen.
