A Long, Long Time

Forever is an eternity, as I see it, I simply cannot fathom infinity. Settling for the “next little bit,” Will be more than fine with me.

Truly…just as I can’t fathom the length time of existence. For us caught up in a mere hundred years (and most don’t make it to that) our minds are finite. When we meet our maker, he will set us on eternity. Well done epigram!
