"Time travel is like visiting Paris. You can't just read the guidebook, you've got to throw yourself in. Eat the food, use the wrong verbs, get charged double, and end up kissing complete strangers."
--'Doctor Who'
What is wrong will be right. What is pain will be joy. What is sick will be healthy. What is rough will be smooth. And what is lost will be found. All you need is time.
If you don't know whether you're coming or going maybe it's time to just stop.
You are already dead in my time. But you are still here. You are the whispering wind that sends goose bumps down my spine and the sensation of water as my foot breaks the surface. You are a lover's fingers on my cheek and a drunkard’s elbow in a crowded bar. You are the grass beneath my toes and the sky above my head. So I smile. Because you are in that too.
Times will be tough like old leather and gravel roads occasionally. Times will be easy, like Sunday morning, every now and then.
Some will make a moment feel like forever. But the people who really change your life are the ones that make forever, feel like a moment.
A heart is there to make you bleed. To pass the time. To help you sleep. A heart is there to touch and feel. To mend. And to heal.
The hardest thing you will ever have to do, is wait.
Take your time and craft the things you do. Love them. Love the process. God is in the details. And you can be an artist in everything you do.
Everything that needs to happen, will happen, in the time that it takes to happen, the way it was meant to happen. You need to trust in that.
Put one in front of the other one. Focus on that and everything else will fall into place. One step at a time. You get there in the end.
If winning is getting up one more time than you fall down. If strength is more than muscle. If time teaches us patience. And knowledge gives us grace. Then we will go forward. Remembering the past. But never yearning for it. There is so much more to look forward to.
You can measure time in wrinkles, bursts of clarity and insight, warm beds, waiting in line at the bank or the distance between two kisses. It stretches and shrinks and sometimes even bends. That's why your heart will always keep better time than a clock.
