Tiffauges in existentialism - a psych nurse journey through existence

Day 2 - Stroll through a Botanic Garden

A very cold day through a garden in Autumn really is a surreal experience. The visual aspect of the different coloured leaves falling softly in the breeze from the variety of trees. These leaves that shades are rich with colour rather than the dehydrated dirt brown colour that would be expected from other trees. These pile up under the trees but losely scatter down the paths.

Hearing the loud native birds in the background while I sit there in quiet contemplations. It is easy to escape the difficulties of life and exist in the moment.

Escaping for two hours allows for thought regarding my continued exploration of the existential experience

Day 3 - Time is Money and Money is Time

First day back at work since starting this journal. I have been able to make an impact in several of the people that I have encountered today. A very busy day, with little to no down time.

The song ‘So long, and thanks for all the fish’ by A Perfect Circle comes to mind today. With the first phrases being time is money and money is time. We wasted every second dime. It is interesting how life is consumed by things which are trivial yet make such an impact when they don’t exist to some.

As I write this I lay in bed thinking of the vastness of the universe and the insignificance yet beauty and power life provides us.
