How true this is. The beauty of flowers, is that they are finite, as is everything in life. We enjoy them as long as we can, and more so because we know they will fade and die. While humans last longer than flowers. in our minds we know that even human relations are finite. Hemingway has said, that. "If you tell a story long enough, it always ends in death" That should not be seen as tragic, but as a warning to enough what we have while we have it. As to the rest of the quote, I know there are people who enjoy having simulations of the real thing, and think they like them because they are infinite. But as Cicero says, simulations don't last. I personally grow tied of those things, people, or sentiments that claim to be as good as the real thing. Profound work my Dear Friend.

ResponderEliminarI agree with your words. And I say: we have to enjoy life, as it is a finite thing, like the beauty of these flowers.
