This month is going to be a treat for our members. _()_ Thank you so much, Ashish.
love this….just vanishing into time is also aging…right?
Beautiful thought!!
Beautiful! From existence to non-existence, from wholesome to nothingness and back to wholesome. The ice-age and its connection to the ageing of self. 'in each one's glass' shows the number of years one is destined to live. It is preset and no one can change the settings.
Wav.Amazing!
Not only are the ice cubes melting ... but as they melt they fill up the glasses and the couple can see themselves ageing - shows they often sit together to have a drink - it shows the companionship between this couple. And the acceptance too.
