How ironic

and then they also say 'Time and tide wait for none'

  6. But .. since time doesnt wait, it helps in healing. Otherwise you would be stuck up with the wound and could never move on...

  7. But these two aren't opposites, are they? They're meant for two very different kind of situations. Like La Vida Loca, I can't see the irony either.

  8. Of course time can't wait for anybody, he has got to fix somebody else up. Have you ever seen an on-duty doctor in a public hospital sitting still?

    Actually...I think the proverbs need not be contradictory....

    I mean, time waits for no one. It goes on, doing its job, healing wounds little by little as it passes. I won't hurry up because you ask it to, it won't stop healing because you are not ready. So without waiting for your readiness or approval, it does what it is meant to do - heal.

  12. Ah I think I know what you meant.

    You mean if we apply both the proverbs to the SAME situation..right?

    Then yes. Its ironic.

  16. Sorry y'all, had a lot on my plate. And I was trying to make some obscure point but it's lost now.

    Note to self: next time you have a brainwave, write the goddamn thing down clearly.

    @ IHM: So Time equals nothing and life is futile? :D

  19. Oh oh..my 1st time commenting here..n ur going to think im DUH. I don’t see wats ironic abt these proverbs or even how they are related in a contradictory manner!
    They are both about time and make sense in their own ways.

  28. announce HERE that you're on break.
    it'll serve two purposes:
    - ppl'll stop wondering why u're not blogging.
    - you'll come up with something to write the next day.
