Pale Blue Dot

This world - A pale blue dot - In space
Ride a beam of light - And its gone from view - In a breath
Inhale, exhale - And you are out there - In space
You turn back - And strain your eyes - Can you still see it?
Another breath - Catch another ray of sun - And you are back
But hold on - If you don't slow down - You shoot past it
And you're out there again - Overshot the goal - Alone in space

Damn ...

If you leave - You get perspective - But can you get back?
Or will you catch beam after beam - Gone in a breath - Back in a blink
Like a pendulum - Left right right left - Never at rest
Thank goodness for time - And space - And gravity to hold us down
We can jump run fly - But we always come down - To our pale blue dot
And what a beautiful blue dot - It can be every day - If you use time and space and gravity

And now you ask - What is the point - Of this little story line?

The point is
There is only one point
That really matters

It's your point of view - Your position - In time and space

And just like earth - Our pale blue dot - The only one we know
It's moving changing - Turning falling - Around a center of gravity
And that's the secret - The source of power - The root of failure
The magic wand - The damning curse - The healing spell

Your point of view

It makes you - Or breaks you - And proves you are living
So take good care of it - Its your father brother child - Your friend in need
Love it, hate it - Always embrace it - It powers your life

Your point of view - But only valid - In perspective

The end of the telephone company?

How long will it take?
To unlearn the word telephone,
just like we unlearned Grammophone

In Germany we already call these things "Handy"

Right now I am en route from SFO to MUC
mailing, skyping, blogging, chatting
all at the same time
using one device

how long will it take?

and who will take over?

who do you trust, to have all your information?

or do you?
