Forever - For Now

Forever
“Nothing lasts forever.” There’s a problem with hoping that’s true, because everything lasts forever. There is nothing new in our world, just recycled. Every thought you dwell on someone else has thought, every sad song you hear, many have cried to. Every smile that crosses your face has been seen on other faces. Fleeting, flowing, forever. 
And thankfully so, because from that ‘forever-ness’ comes empathy and understanding. 
It truly is physics, energy isn’t destroyed, we have reoccurring nightmares, and reoccurring dreams, we even have reoccurring apparitions, a seemingly replaying of an emotional event that we call a ghost. We live with many ghosts, and we call them our memories. But they are everyones memories, there is no event that someone else has not experienced, in some way shape or form. 
In this finite evolution we call our lives we have only so many moments to live. When we choose to dwell on the same moments, over and over again, then we believe that they won’t last forever, so we have a hard time letting them go. When we finally understand that the moments we dread, are no different than the moments we adore, then the flow of every moment begins and we can live in each one.
“Nothing lasts forever?” 
Everything lasts forever.
