Then what is time? Fruit from the defiled tree. An offspring of sin. We are aware of time because we are aware of inevitable death, for which the entire universe is bound. We can see its decay all around us. That's age. In desperationXve search for our identity in footprints Ignoring the reality of the cycle we try to salvage the unsalvageable. Despair. But there is hope for us. children of the Timeless One. In Him. who stayed that maelstrom of destruction, we find our identity. Now.

No. Bare our nerves to the sting of the present. | — That’s what time it is. ®
