(Q) Gaia often says “life is long, but time is short” but what does that really mean? Is it a metaphor for don’t waste your life, or don’t sweat the small stuff? If time really is short, how much time do we have? And dare I ask, what then?
(A) It is both a metaphor and a warning. It’s been over twenty years since I heard it for the first time. I remember thinking that it sounded lyrical, but I didn’t take it seriously. I thought it was quaint in that Gaia way most of us recognize. When I hear it now it sounds like, “Be attentive to what matters, this is not a rehearsal.” Like you, I’m listening, learning, and asking questions. I am smiling at strangers, thanking my barista, and returning library books on time.
Life is long, is a nice way to say that life is infinite, ever evolving without beginning or end. It also describes how we feel about life in our younger years when it seems there is a lifetime of choices and experiences ahead of us. Time is short, is an indicator of how quickly time passes. Time doesn’t offer as many choices or request our approval. It marches forward toward a finite end. And then things get weird, because at some point time seems irrelevant and life seems too stretch. I think she is telling us not to wait until the end to figure it out.
Most everyone I know, including myself, would like to know what is near and next. Another version of this place or this life? Something altogether different? Mostly, I think we want to know that our life has meaning and matters to someone besides us. It does, of course, but we don’t always know it or feel it. That may come later when we begin to experience things as they are instead of how we imagine them, or how others tell us they are.+++
