i don't care what happens to my life, i don't care about the years that follow after i am a set of figures etched on a gravestone that will crumble into the soil before too many more years have passed... i don't care what happens after i am dust and drifting on the wind, i don't care what happens when i cease to exist, to be, when i become darkness, though not even that much... i don't care... i loved, and was loved, and she held me. though fleeting, i am the most fortunate one that ever existed.

I can't put a material cost on an immaterial feeling. I can't quantify it or even hold it in my hands. There is no proof or disproof. But its still there. I can still feel it. INside everyone one of us a point of energy that is proof positive of the ephemeral, but we can't define it, let alone control it.

Indeed, LS! That ephemeral point within reminds us that not all is meant for definition and control.

I take "definition" to mean a designated and generally excepted explanation as to the nature of any given concept, establishing a circular boundry of "is" and "is not". Can also become more and more specific, making the interior of the circle, or "is", smaller and more finite. "Control" is the ability to willfully determine the criteria of "is" and "is not".
