On the nature of things

[JustBe]

But as it is, no rest, we may be sure, has been granted to the bodies of the first-beginnings, because there is no bottom at all, whither they may, as it were, flow together, and make their resting-place. All things are for ever carried on in ceaselessmovement from all aides, and bodies of matter are even stirred up and supplied from beneath out of limitless space. The nature of room then and the space of the deep is such that neither could the bright thunderbolts course through it in their career, gliding on through the everlasting tract of time, nor bring it about that there remain a whit less to traverse as they travel; so far on every side spreads out huge room for things,

free from limit in all directions ever..


Lucretius-On the nature of things

[FallingLeaves]

it is hard to be
free from limitation
when one is ensconced
in the idea
that other people
must in fact be forcefully limited
just to hold true
to one's own ideals
of how 'life' should be
