"The Video below is a commercial that must
have taken weeks to film. And whatever the intent of the commercial, (I
think they are selling insurance), there is something of an admonition
in both the video and the music that life and the things of life slip
away. . . .
"And here is a paradigm for life. No thing, and no one in this world will endure the passage of time. All will be swept away, all will pass. Geologically, even lofty mountains were once on the sea floor, and to that floor they will erode and return."
In a recent commentary, Monsignor Charles Pope (pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Parish,
Washington, DC) reflected on how "ultimately each moment in life is but a snapshot in time," how time
itself and all things are slipping away, and how "God alone remains forever and our only hope is to be anchored" to Him.
