The Mill of Time


Very strange.
We say that time is running fast.
But while we live, nothing exiting happens. We have breakfast, eat lunch, have dinner, every day like the previous one.
No important events, or only seemingly none?
While time is flowing, we change, get older.
We do not notice how drop by drop our life moves on.
Only when looking back one notices the turns in life.
During the normal living, everything appears to be normal and usual.
One is waiting for changes, for events, for things to happen.
But nothing happens.
So it seems!
While we look intensively into one direction, the event happens quietly behind our back, and we notice nothing.
Therefore: be open towards all sides!
Sometimes turn and look into the other direction!
Then perhaps one sees how the mill is turning, even if it is turning only very slowly.
