Contemplation on the Odu Ofun Irete

There is no present, it does not, and can not exist. As soon as we acknowledge it as such, it has already become the past, and the future has taken it's place. We are forever in a game of chess with time, attempting to see 3, 7, 13 steps ahead, yet unable to know what move time will make. Live the board you have been given, but think ahead, with the flexibility of a stream that finds a way around the rocks left after an earthquake. And though you can not win, play so the next generation can enjoy a longer and more fruitful game than you. -- Marcos Ifalola Sanchez
