Infinity is Open to Your Sight

I saw this quote today, while riding the train, and immediately I was perplexed. Can all people really see infinity, or is this a concept not grasped by all.


At first it didn't make much sense. Everyone has their own vision of said infinity, but some people are so limited in their scope that I didn't see how this could apply to everyone. There are people in this world with small minds, limited scope and minimal experience. People that never live in more than one town, or travel beyond their countries borders, and even more people only view the world through their own eyes, and are unyielding to the possibility of things not being the way they see it. Is that THEIR infinity then.


What is inifinite? Dictionary Definition: unlimited; immeasurable; unbounded;  having no limits or boundaries in time, space, extent, or magnitude.


So in this quote there is already contradiction, because sight is limited by what you allow youself to see. That could also be the exact meaning of this quote. If you allow yourself the experience to see limitless, boundless and exponential things, you are seeing what is infinite to you...


Okay, enough on that. I could go around in circles for hours about how that quote has changed my view on closed-mindedness; censorship and the like.


I had quite a weekend; spent a lot of it sleeping. I need to catch up on sleep during the weekends. My work week and workout schedule do not allow me to do much sleeping or even relaxing for that matter. Friday night I hit up the gym for an intense cardio workout, watched a little television, cuddled with my animals and went to bed. Uneventful, but exactly what I needed. Saturday, I did a little cleaning, walked my dog and then took a nap. Saturday night was date night for me and the hubbs. Off to Andiamo's (little Italian place in Addison with exquisite food) where we enjoyed huge, stiff cocktails, amazing baked clams, and a delectable lobster bisque. The entrees were not as impressive. Both were over salted, mine so much so that I returned it. Matt's seafood linguine (or whatever they called it) was very good, lobster, clams and crab cooked to perfection, but again the sauce was salty.


Sunday started off pretty good. Trip to the grocery store went smoothly, but trying to find dinner side items that aren't starchy or sugary is a little trying. Then, however the day seemed to take a turn for the worse. An argument began to brew between Matt and I, how it started I cannot even recall (can anyone ever really remember), but it was a blow out. A lot of things were said that probably shouldn't have been. I think arguments truly need a mute button. It is not good to be so hurtful to someone you love. I have grown up biting my tongue and trying my best not to insult people because I know once words are said, you cannot take them back. There is no rewind or magic eraser.


The great thing about this argument was that we got through it. We made it safely back to a hug and agreed to better our relationship and grow ourselves. We have a long way to go, but there is a lot of love there.


My how we have changed!


I hope everyone can experience a lot of love. It hurts and sucks and is amazing all at once.
