All That Is New...
I was walking around the old part of Edinburgh when I came across a square where some of the flagstones had inscriptions carved into them. So I saunter over this massive stone which had chips out of it and a light dusting of greenish moss at the edges and between my feet read the following quote.
“And yet. And yet. This new road will one day be the old road too.”
It has the ability to overpower the reader with a dose of realism, that everything you are currently experiencing will diminish and fade over time.
I’ve often considered this, while looking at a brand new Vegas hotel or a newly opened store. What kind of world will it be when that has become the old and shabby?
