Of time and rivers


"The river is the original river. The man, the first man."
Jorge Luis Borges, Manuscript found in a book of Joseph Conrad
translated from the Spanish by Alastair Reid

Do you want to understand eternity? Spend an hour watching a river pass on its route to the ocean. From there it will rise to heaven and return to itself.

Listen to the river. In its voice is the timeless voice of God.
