An evening post - Quote of the day

Kategori: Philosophy

As the evening clouds were slowly gathering, blanketing the surface of the earth, indulging philosophers to embrace its melancholy feel, I was pondering back and forth, reflecting if my time could be put to any benefit.

Time is regarded as our most precious compartment and we value it greatly in the presence of others however in solitude without anyting pending we do not once boast, ''I'm wasting my time!''.

The two main outcomes from a philosophical point of view to this question were; do your Spanish assignment which is due tomorrow, or play music and pretend you're already done with it. As I was juggling between these possibilities I suddenly recalled a few words relating to my situation spoken by the latin poet Felipe Coronel. As it was expressed in Spanish I've taken the liberty to translate them.

''Ignorance is paradise, reality is a jungle''

Is this quote as shallow as it appears or is there a more profound meaning to it? I'll leave that for you to decide.

As time is now slipping away and the evening cloulds have tinted the sky dark preventing sunrays from penetrating their soft bonds I've realised that its soon 8pm and I haven't gotten started on my Spanish assignment.
