What kind of Typology of Instants does this blog propose?

This blog was born out of a specific wonder: to realize that in most of the languages there is a lack of words which designate type of instants, names of instants. When I say languages I am talking mainly about english, spanish and german. But hopefuly this research will reveal what is the situation on the other languages.

This is just a starting point, a challenge, and adventure and everyone is invited to collaborate on the process that this blog implies.

I am not interested in finding or creating new words, neither concepts, but descriptions. This doesn´t mean that on the way I will not find words that will approach the idea that I am looking for.

But primary the idea is to research type of instants that I would like to point out as more significants that others. I guess this task is intimately related with the favorite question of my friend Ivan de los Rios: What is important?

Instants are the matter of my live, I am a compendium of instants, a summary of moments that, relevants or irrelevants, will compose the landscape of my perceptions, dreams, desires, expectations, etc.

I am conscious that this enterprise has no end, the number of instants is infinite, as inifinite can be the criteria that everyone will use to define what´s important and what´s not.
