00:00 Not that the attention spans have become shorter, the thing you are attending to has become

00:06 more and more false and because it is so false, it is impossible for you to attend to it for

00:12 a long time.

00:14 Only the truth is beautiful and it can completely enchant you, mesmerize you and make you stick

00:22 to itself.

00:23 You become helpless and you cannot let go of the truth and therefore the relationship

00:28 becomes long, durable, if not timeless, at least sustainable.

00:33 But when you are relating to or concentrating on something utterly worthless or coming to

00:40 even a worthy thing from a worthless point within yourself, then the relationship cannot

00:46 last and that's why we have such short-lived friendships and love affairs these days.
