| time n. the concept of continous existence. a moment or period. system of measuring duration. bridge n. span over an obstacle, any similar structure or link. -Webster's Dictionary 2003 If I could build a bridge, it wouldn't be a bridge over a river or a valley. It would be a bridge across time. Since existence in physical form is limited by time, then time must be considered an obstacle. A bridge is considered a span over an obstacle. Since time is the obstacle, I would call my bridge the 'time bridge'. Time would no longer limit physical existence, and the time bridge would be free to everyone forever. The bridge is built and powered by love, which they say conquers all. Love in this case, is the indestructible mortar which holds the bridge together. The things we hold as treasures in our hearts can be added to the time bridge, they will be the bricks that form the bridge structure, held together in a unique fashion. One that allows those shared treasures to be seen by everyone to come that way, to cross that bridge, forever more. By adding the treasures of our hearts to the bridge, it will constantly be reinforced and each piece added will be a signature of love to last for all time. One that will be seen at each subsequent visit. Each passing year will see more treasures of the heart added, held together by the collective mix of love from people young and old, from near and far. So a bridge built of love and the treasures of our hearts will span the obstacles that time brings, and will be available free to everyone forever. By adding the date to the place, time will circle around and each year, for a brief time, we may harmonize with it. Moving perfectly along with time, for just a little while, we may attain the highest point in existence, riding the wave of time itself. This is what the legends attained, the fans should know about it and try it themselves. If I could build a bridge, it would be a bridge across time. |
