:05:00
You know, everything that he needs.
:05:03
But that doesn't matter,
:05:05
'cause what he wants
is to fight for meaning.
:05:08
You know, happiness is in the doing,
not in the...
:05:12
getting what you want.
:05:13
So, he's sitting there,
:05:15
and just at a second,
:05:17
his little five year old daughter
:05:20
hops up on the table.
:05:21
And he knows that
she should get down
:05:23
'cause she could get hurt,
:05:25
but she's dancing to this
pop song,
:05:28
in a summer dress.
:05:30
And he looks down,
:05:32
and all of a sudden,
he is sixteen.
:05:36
And... his high school sweetheart
:05:38
is dropping him off, at home.
:05:41
And they've just lost their virginity,
:05:43
and she loves him,
:05:44
and the same song is
playing on the car radio,
:05:49
and she climbs up and starts
dancing on the roof of the car.
:05:52
And now,
now he's worried about her!
:05:54
And she is beautiful, with a...
:05:56
a facial expression
just like his daughters'.
:05:59
In fact, you know, maybe that's
why he even likes her
:06:01
You see, he knows he's not
remembering this dance,
:06:04
he's there.
:06:05
He's there in both
moments simultaneously.
:06:07
And just like for an instance,
:06:09
all his life is just folding into itself
:06:12
and it's obvious to him
that time is a lie...
:06:17
that's it's all happening all the time
:06:19
and inside every moment
is another moment, all...
:06:23
You know, happening simultaneously.
:06:25
And, anyway, that's kind of
the idea... anyway
:06:30
Well, our author has to be
going to the airport soon,
:06:32
so he'll thank you all very much
for coming here this afternoon.
:06:35
And a special thanks to Mr. Wallace
for being with us.
:06:40
We hope to see you again here
on your next book!
:06:43

:06:48

:06:50
Thank you all.
:06:51
How much longer before
I have to go to the airport?
:06:53
Oh, you should leave at 7:30.
:06:55

:06:57
