About me and the ~Path of Time~

I have had some friend readers of mine asking me why I chose the name ~Path of Time~ and what got me started on this 'project'. After so many blog entries, I am finally going to give people a low down on why I started ~Path of Time~

Hi, I am Mick. Growing up with an innate liking for writing, I decided to blog about my life (not the most exciting of lives but it'll do for me) :) The ~Path of Time~ showcases my walk of life - life as what I see, hear and experience.

Why I chose the name ~Path of Time~? To me at least, living life is very much similar to walking through time. From the day of my birth to a walking child, teenager, then gradually transitioning into adulthood. Much can happen in one's life, ranging from happy moments to the sadest of times when one is down and out.

~Path of Time~ records my walk of life, sharing my experiences with everyone else at large with the hope that i might gather comments from people who have seen more than I have and hopefully learn from more experienced people. In turn, my experiences can hopefully help others in their own walk of life.

The past few years have not been an any easy ride for me with a lot of ups and downs that has made me, I believe a lil' more matured. There really is a lot out there and close to any form of surprises can just pop up and just look you straight in the eye!

The world is a big place and there is so much to learn. Where else to document my encounters if not on the ~Path of Time~? :)

I truly hope readers will enjoy reading my blog, and if you have suggestions, feel free to drop me a comment and I will see if I can accomodate the suggestions.

hiatus!

After having been online on the ~Path of Time~ since 2006..... it is going to be hard, painful and sad. As of today, I will officially stop writing on the ~Path of Time~. For those who have continued to read my posts, I thank you very much for taking timeout to read my posts. I am not sure if all my writings were great but I'll be happy to know even if it was only one post that reached your heart. I may one day pick up from where I left off here but only time will tell. Who knows I might even start afresh? Until next time.......... time stops ticking for the ~Path of Time~

one foot in the past, another in the future........ what about the present?

All of us go through a cycle, what we commonly call - the past, present and the future. It can probably be summed up by this simple phrase: " we come from the past to be in the present and look forward to the future ". Now, what I want you to do is take a step back, or just give your mind a minute or two to digest the above mentioned phrase. Ask yourself if it applies to you. Really ask yourself; and I mean REALLY ask yourself in the most honest of manner, whether it really applies to you. You may find it difficult to arrive at a 'yes' and even if you do, you probably find yourself in a paralysis state of mind trying to justify the 'yes'. If you really ponder about it, you are likely to find that most of us would find this phrase more relevant instead: " we come from the past and look forward to the future " You will find many of us either hang on to the past or look far too forward into the future, or likely for some to even be dwelling too much in ...

Eugen Weber - APOCALYPSES, review

Apocalypses Prophecies, Cults, and Millennial Beliefs through the Ages That is the name of this book which I bought some time ago but never really got the time to it. This book was my weekend book so to speak. "Apocalyptic visions and prophecies from Zarathustra to yesterday form the luxuriant panorama in Eugen Weber's profound and elegant book. Beginning with the ancients of the West and the Orient and, especially, with those from whom we received our religions, the Jews and earliest Christians, Weber finds that an absolute belief in the end of time, when good would do final battle with evil, was omnipresent. Within centuries, apocalyptic beliefs inspired Crusades, scientific discoveries, works of art, voyages such as those of Columbus, rebellions and reforms. In the new world, American abolitionists, who were so critical to the movement to end slavery, believed in a final reckoning. The nineteenth and twentieth centuries' apocalyptic movements veered toward a lunatic fri...
