Plato said: “Time is the moving image of eternity.” I’d love to have the power to freeze time, just like this photo has frozen the water in this fountain. I want to be able to stop time in a moment of joy and stay like that forever, or at least slow down the years, the days, the hours, in such a way that I can gradually move away from that moment of happiness, almost unaware that I’m doing it. Time is a river where there are no dams that stand in its way. While we’re caught up in the day-to-day things of life, time continues to go by, like water slipping through our fingers.
