Rivers of Time

Rivers Of Time Life is like a river of time as everything you do will affect everyone else's life, you need to understand that no person on this planet has total control of their destiny, as it could change at any second of the day, we measure our life in terms of time and events so just one little change could change the world as we know it, as soon as you wake from your sleep, there is change, you only have to look at the weather to realise that, and each time you make a decision to do something and you change your mind, it is altering future history, why even a humble homeless person living on a park bench could change events happening right now, for example major historical events could all have a different outcome if one little thing had been different. When you pick up a pebble and throw it into a pool, the shockwave will cause ripples, and life reflects the same scenerio, the ripples could be called events, as the water has changed, as did the forming of our planet Earth, when the the cataclysmic event took place in the birth of our solar system, eventually creating life on Earth. we have this to be thankful for, as without it we all would not be here today, the rivers of time is the cause and effect of mankind, each day in our lives are totally different as the patterns of clouds in the skies, if we do somthing bad many people are hurt but it goes beyond that, the small act of evil, could change how the world could be, if a person is injured in an accident, by changing his previous actions prior to the injury, may have prevented his suffering. there are four different dimensions that are known, three of them we can move freely through, but the fourth dimension we are all prisoners. I am refering to time, we can do as we wish in our present, but we can't change our past or know our future, in actual fact we live in three dimensions Past, Present and Future, as the Present becomes our past every second we are here, and we become a part of our future one second later, time is really relative, as Albert Einstein said, and he is so right, as everything that we do or don't do can reflect our events, by trying to change history you create a paradox, were you could make the event better or worse, it is a matter of conjecture, whether it will or will not benefit man, yes we are controlled by the river of time and only God knows the true outcome of events.

You've share emotional words where i can go on to achieve great things. Here thank you just doesn't seem enough. I wasn't a writer till a kind & generous man shared with me everything necessary to escape a fogotten land where I lived. From feeling unworthy to having feelings of pride for the 1st time. You've been so caring & you've made my life mean something, you found me. Please always care & share your thoughts wherever you can because who knows, the next life you save, could be the holy one.

Hi there - I'm quite new to this site but I have posted some writings and now I'm taking more time to read the writings of others. I've come across your poem, this poem, and all I could do was nod in agreement. Even those things that I write about have to do with time. Very nice! Z

Welcome Zoria, I have only been here a short while myself and thank you for reading this poem I have around 38 here now, some old and some new, I go beyond the boundaries of poetry sometimes and I have a very creative mind so it may be hard to understand sometimes, try some of my other poems and be inspired, all the best.
