Murakami's time cloth
"It's been ten years since I listened to so much music. To my surprise, the Rolling Stones and Beach Boys are still going strong.Time really is one big continuous cloth, no? We habitually cut out pieces of time to fit us, so we fool ourselves into thinking that time is our size, but it really goes on and on."
From Haruki Murikami - A Wild Sheep Chase
I liked this passage. It struck me when in the mix of things and phases of life that we create outfits out of time to dress ourselves in but we are ephemeral and it is not.
