Nice - dreamy and melodic!
It's a pity really - because there is SO much great music around, when I think of all this timeless music I tend to reflect upon how much of it disappears for ever, even after being popular for a moment.....

Once upon a time there were people living there.... all gone... no one even remembers who they were or what went on in their lives and maybe they are just bones in the deep dust and sand... https://www.theatlantic.com/ph....oto/2015/05/the-forg

@Drums_McBashington: It's what hits me hardest is that we think in the here and now, and yet, there are the, events of our time, time spans, then there are the intergenerational time spans, then the national time spans, and then the international / empirical time spans, and then there are the historical and civilisational time spans, and then there are the earthly time spans - like ice ages, assorted periods in lumps and clumps of millions of years and then there are the geological time spans - the drifting of continents, and the formation of the earth and then the universal time spans and galactic time spans of hundred of millions and billions of years... Like the Island of Meroe - going back some 3500 years (?) what is left is crumbling into the dust and no one even can trace their ancestory to there, from there or knows who was there and what they did and who their families were... and in the blink of an eye, in what ever time spans you choose, in a few hundred million years, some one might find the fossilised bones of your arse, poking out the side of some mountain top, 200 million years from now, or they might all be churned up into lava at the center of the earth and spat out over the planet in some eruption some where... or maybe not....

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: People now days have switched from Spans to Episodes, especially recent history. I tell people it doesn't work like that, it's linear.

@Drums_McBashington: I am not trying to discred it what you have just said, but perhaps to compliment it... People I have noticed, tend to think in the here and now, in the expected immediate future and the recent experienced past - sort of living in an "time bubble" of the very recent.
