“When the shadow of the sash appeared on the curtains it was between seven and eight o' clock and then I was in time again, hearing the watch. It was Grandfather's and when Father gave it to me he said I give you the mausoleum of all hope and desire; it's rather excruciating-ly apt that you will use it to gain the reducto absurdum of all human experience which can fit your individual needs no better than it fitted his or his father's. I give it to you not that you may remember time, but that you might forget it now and then for a moment and not spend all your breath trying to conquer it. Because no battle is ever won he said. They are not even fought. The field only reveals to man his own folly and despair, and victory is an illusion of philosophers and fools.”
― William Faulkner, The Sound and the Fury
Okay..I know it sounds so overboard. It is like an overload of English literature and it isn't typical of me to post such stuff. But it kinda make me realize how truly it reflects time, our thoughts, beliefs and such. Anyway, I heard about it when I was watching The Walking Dead:)

Re: How love withers..
Relationships fall and whither because eventually someone stops trying and it doesn’t feel the same. The first couple of months or even years, it may be the best thing you ever wished for, but eventually someone loses feelings, gets busy, or doesn’t even bother to try. You know what? Because they’re comfortable. The beginning is all about the chase. Can you keep up? If you can then you’ll get the hang of it and then you won’t want to try anymore. You aren’t afraid to lose them because they’re yours. Arguing leads to fighting and it just gets worse from there. It all flashes by so fast. So, cherish what you have.
