You would measure time the measureless and the
immeasurable. You would adjust your conduct and
even direct the course of your spirit according
to hours and seasons. Of time you would make a
stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch
its flowing.
Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness,
And knows that yesterday is but today's memory
and tomorrow is today's dream.
And that that which sings and contemplates in
you is still dwelling within the bounds of that
first moment which scattered the stars into
space.
Who among you does not feel that his power to
love is boundless?
And yet who does not feel that very love, though
boundless, encompassed within the centre of
his being, and moving not from love thought
to love thought, nor from love deeds to other
love deeds?
And is not time even as love is, undivided and
spaceless?
But if in your thought you must measure time
into seasons, let each season encircle all the
other seasons,
And let today embrace the past with remembrance
and the future with longing.
On Time
Kahlil Gibran
