The passing of time is set. “Carpe diem”, seize the day.

Transience makes the moment special.

Existences could not experience if time did not pass.

Memories are steps back into the past as the clock moves on.

Memories allow us to relive lives we have already experienced.

Beautiful memories can also make the present beautiful.

Bad memories hinder our free experience, they unsettle us when the voices from the past tell us excuses and missed opportunities to our now.

Painful memories can make us sick, even depriving the future of hopeful moments.

Those who cannot let the past go away also bind their yesterday to their today and to their tomorrow.

Transience helps. “Time heals all wounds.”

When the end is near, transience no longer accompanies us.

We can consider ourselves lucky that it, like time, goes with us.

Transience goes hand in hand with decay, wrinkles and infirmities are its price. We could never die in good health and with infinite vitality.

People have been researching – for a long time – aging processes and looking for immortality.

Do you want to live forever? Or would you turn back the clock of life, – into your time?
