I am sorry, but we really must begin 7

I must apologize.
I know this is most intrusive of me.
And really, its hardly respectful.
Who am I to tell you when its time to get serious?
And yet, the truth is... We really must begin.
That is to say, there is no longer time to waste.
I know, it has been lovely, all this dalliance, this lounging and dalliance.
But the reality of the situation permits no frivolousness.
We find ourselves at the razor's edge of all creation.
Where life and death rest upon the heartbeat and the fraction of an inch.
Where a few parts per million means global life or death.
Wear a few years separates death and immortality, and where the last vestiges of this civilization are shedding like afterbirth, to create the new man.
I tell you- You shall not await the coming of the techno-messiah until you are old and your children grown.
I tell you- You shall not await the coming until your own hair turns grey!
A young man will you be when the new Aeon is born.
A thousand fates are worse then death, but the joy of life is everlasting.
In this era, all truths are made manifest, and the origami of eternity unfolds like liquid fire from heaven's belly.

very Nietzschean. i love the afterbirth metaphor.
and the end too, very origami-like itself.
i loved it.

Beautiful post Moonie. I often have similar thoughts lingering about being on the verge of a monumental change, and it's hard to shake the feeling sometimes that I'm living in the "end times" in a sense. It's very hard to put into words but each day just seems closer to the end.
I find it hard to pull myself together, "get serious" and enact the changes that need to be made in my life; I'm too stuck in the comfort of complacency. I think I have been making progress recently though.
