and another thing...

lets talk about time

unseen, sneaky, and relentless

it passes without our focus

my beautiful wife and i have been together for 13 years

and it seems like yesterday we had our first date

and now here we are

on frazer island.

my 7th time

and my son is 8

the age I was when i first came here.

the maheno shipwreck was wrecked when i was 8, 12, 15, 18, 22, 30 and 42.

its still wrecked and sunk into the sand.

was in fact in a similar state for the last 30 years.

however now there is a sign warning

dont come within 3m.

time is a funny thing.

the more things change

the less you remember how they were back when.

I was in egypt when i was 7

rode a camel

sat in the kings chamber in the great pyramid 

with my dad who had just climbed to the top.

now im sure a sign says

dont come within 3m.

life and history reduced to instructions about distance and time.

and I always think about the inscription above the cemetery 

where my wife's grandparents are  buried

in Centure.

a little town in Slovenia.

"what you are we once were

what we are you  will be"

so I guess the moral of the story is go out

there

and live your fucking life!
