Synopsis

Time. There are those who claim with certain confidence that time is a steady beat, each tick the same as every tock; no difference between the first, the last, the next, or any other. How then to explain the acceleration, the contradiction, and the relativity? The hands of time move a turtle’s pace when watched by youthful eyes toward their release, while older eyes but blink in wonder at its accelerating meter. And thus, we ponder the imponderable contradiction: the variant pace of invariant time. And then the puzzlement which does most befuddle where sense of time diverges in the minds of fellow travelers, yet never differs in the slightest when they meet at journey’s end. It amazes how, sans winged feet, time so soon takes flight with impatient speed toward tomorrow. Yesterday then arrived, but ancient history; now left behind what was and what could have been.How swift the weeks have hastened hence when I first took to pen to birth this journal for restless minds. With this issue of Colloqui, fifty-two issues published over the past fifty-two weeks have been laid to rest; I can only hope a few have found some small merit in what has been put to page. No one is perfect, we are, in all respects, sinners; broken in some fashion, shape or man-ner, beholden to our loving God, to whom we pray for mercy and forgiveness. I must confess to a misstep or two or three or … well, let us simply say more than a few and leave it there.
