The concept of infinity; limitless or endless in space, extent, or size; impossible to measure or calculate.
We search for that which is just out of our reach. The constant flow never ends or does it eventually, and we are just not capable of seeing it occur? That moment we believe we understand the word infinity, have we only just begun to conceive that there are things much bigger, much more significant than we can comprehend with our feeble minds?
I wonder if those that first attempted to explain infinity would think of those things that have been discovered since. Space and its many planets, stars, galaxies far out of reach for any living being here on earth. Or will future generations ponder how limited we were in our exploration?
The exploration of infinity until we no longer are, or do we continue on in a way that we simply don’t understand? The concept itself will never be fully understood because, in its understanding, it would defy the basic principle of its impossibility to measure or calculate. I did ponder that infinite wisdom comes to those willing to let go and explore past what they know. They will never reach infinity, but they will have learned more than if they did not dare to let go and explore as far as their lives allow them to.
Raissa I love this. While we will always learn more, we still have more we can learn.
