Sleepless II: more (irrelevant) thoughts

Richard Bach said it so easily:
"If our friendship depends on things like space and time, then when we finally overcome space and time, we've destroyed our own brotherhood! But overcome space, and all we have left is Here. Overcome time, and all we have left is Now. And in the middle of Here and Now, don't you think that we might see each other once or twice?"

But hmmm... Is it really that simple? I mean, suppose we overcome space and time, suppose space and time lose their effect in our friendship, suppose our friendship becomes, as they say, eternal. Is that it though? Can't it be enhanced? Is this all there is to it? Just space and time? No you and me?

I think we're just infinite. Even if the space and time stop, there's still so much more to do, so much more you can never finish, you can never reach the eternal. There's so much in you, so much in me, that we'll never be able to explore.

Another thing: let's say our friendship, our belief in our relationship, becomes eternal, freed from space and time. Now how about my knowledge about you? Is that independent of space and time?

Why be left unanswered? So is the knowledge gained in a relationship, about the other person or in fact about the relationship itself, independent of space and time? Why should this be left unanswered? What's the advantage of hanging it in the air?!

By the way, rishoo guy, how long is the rish now? :P
