MIMPI YANG TAK SUDAH - IBNOR RIZA


Cerita - cerita 10001

After  a while without realizing one's progression through temporal exigencies or one's voyage from end to end past time and space, one eventually noticed one's veritable facial contours upon the long mirror, that the spectacle inside is weather beaten and decaying. Even though one's mind still thinks one is invisible or that one's youth rebels indefinitely despite lying hidden and not speaking behind the experiences one holds. Yet one's body is deteriorating and impossible to rejuvenate like young as when one was before. Hair thinning and graying and wrinkles and lines becoming visible, how's that the one upon the glass is one? But the picture in front is one and nobody else! Could be one was always having thoughts of wisdom of age when in reality one is actually aged with wisdom becoming ageless. And that one's acquired wisdom came with one becoming old and ne'er the opposite. Seldom can be heard of the logic of aging when wisdom is thought on its own and not the accompanying minds and of that the flesh and bones attached along with. And that they too, wither through time: eventually expire - leaving only memories and these also; verily lost after which. Or that the mind will always fly, regardless, when the body aches and suffers each and everyday going ahead. Must also the mind consider the vessel that brings it and that that is dying as time passes. And the outlook of getting old should come with thoughts and considerations of the relating physique or physicality and not logic and philosophy alone. Or that philosophy of aging comes upon its own, and, what can that particular philosophy be if not for the eventuality of death. With notions of God always lurking in the deep recesses of one heart and mind why not then concentrate on inklings of him when one should be wise enough to realize and understand of one's - truer than true - mortality. Superman and Hercules are young,vibrant,virile,powerful and mega strong but they are a post modern superhero for the former and an epic and legendary figure for the later. And ordinary folks just die when old or otherwise..
