A Crack of Time

‘I am caught in a crack of time. Nothing before, nothing after. All past
\nis in ruins and of little use in building the future. This generation must start
\nfrom scratch, philosophically and theologically. There are tools that can be
\nsalvaged, to be sure. But tools are built upon the presumption that they are
\nworth using, that life is worth the effort. One can tax his brains for only so
\nlong without reason. He can attempt to shut his eyes and attempt to live out
\nhis life without vision or purpose. But the barrel of the gun is always so near
\nand tempting. It is inevitable that unless a new purpose and vision of world
\nis found, the wheels will slowly grind to a halt. Notice how desperately we
\nstrive to keep the old myths alive. No matter if they have no substance.
\nThey have worked in the past…so patch them up and paint them with
\npsychedelic colors, and let’s get on with the work. Even if the reason for
\nworking is gone. Even if the goals we are working for are lost. Even if we
\nget richer and richer, yet become more and more miserable and unhappy.
\n‘We are caught in a crack in time. This generation must start from
\nscratch. We must act. We must build a future. And only one thing is certain.
\nWhatever that future might be, we must build it together.’<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
