I truly wish I would read and work on something like this instead:
"- I am the resurrection and the life. That touches a man's in most heart.
- It does, Mr Bloom said.
Your heart perhaps but what price the fellow in the six feet by two with his toes to the daisies? No touching that. Seat of the affections. Broken heart. A pump after all, pumping thousands of gallons of blood every day. One fine day it gets bunged up: and there you are. Lots of them lying around here: lungs, hearts, livers. Old rusty pumps: damn the thing else. The resurrection and the life. Once you are dead you are dead. That last day idea. Knocking them all up out of their graves. Come forth, Lazarus! And he came fifth and lost the job. Get up! Last day! Then every fellow mousing around for his liver and his lights and the rest of his traps. Find damn all of himself that morning."...

Alas, choices and obligations are in an everlasting 100 year war... and I am going to be alive for about 3/4 of that period at the most... What the point is I wonder... Maybe perhaps possible it is to just wonder about it... Hm, an entire scheme designed just so one can wonder about it, a self serving principle of all time, all place, all events, all at the same time, all that is to come and all that ever was and is... now before and forever...
Time should tell? No... it wont. Time does not tell shit... except the effects of oxidative cell damage and free radicals... Damn it...
