Suffering is one very long moment. We cannot divide it by seasons. We can only record its moods, and chronicle their return. With us time itself does not progress. It revolves. It seems to circle round one centre of pain.

I can only resonate with this statement. For me too, suffering is one long moment. But I stop thinking about tomorrow.
Yesterday feels far away.
I live inside one heavy instant. But at the same time, I realize that the long moment was not endless, only intense. And intensity, like everything else, move on. What remains, is that I learned that forever is still only a moment.
Bonne lecture, Maria.
