Beloved Gloria,
in http://www.heavenletters.org/ode-to-life.html
1- parag. 1 : "There is no time to waste. There is no time to waste because there is no time. Time does not exist, so how can it be wasted? Much of the illusion in the world that is portrayed by speech or misconstrued by speech, is all made up and sanctioned as true, blessed as true. There is even scientific verification of all that which cannot be verified except as the unverified is wildly verified."
I have a difficulty in understanding clearly that sentence because of the "except as". And is "wildly" meant to be there or could it be "widely"? Anyway, can you paraphrase this sentence?
2- Before last parag. : "Long live life, this exploration of figurativeness. Hail to life. Ode to life. Ode to the beating hearts who live life and make it worthwhile, make it dear, make it lively, make it worthwhile, this temporary passage on Earth that is a deep-seated dream, a conclusion drawn, a will o the wisp, is a learning experience regardless. Yes, you learn a lot in this fiction you live. You tell a story, and it is a story worth telling". Is this duplication of "make it worthwhile" intentional?
3- Last parag. :"There is no up and there is no down for such directions do not really exist, and, just the same, your life goes up, and your life goes down, and your fictitious physical life is for something, and you make it true while it lasts, not only actualized but worthwhile, purposeful, life-defining, even as definition doesn’t really mean anything more than direction does, and yet, and yet, life is so, and life is valuable, and life which is ongoing and unforgettable is forgotten and sinks through the space that does not exist either, yet how important, how necessary this fiction on Earth is to mankind, and to you, and to Me even as there is non-material life greater than life on Earth, for this greater is Eternal, and you are Eternity and Infinity rolled into One."
This whole paragraph is made of a single sentence. In French, we cannot put so many ideas in a single sentence. We have to break it. I know this is not your problem but could you suggest me a "possible" breaking point where you think this sentence could be split without destroying its momentum? I was thinking of two breaking points. But I would like to have your feeling first.
Thanks
