you run and you run to catch up with the sun but its sinking. Racing around to come up behind you again. The sun is the same in a relevent way but you're older. shorter of breath and one day closer to death

When we think about time, is it just to stop and take a look at our watch? Or when we sit and reflect on the past, people we have known, loved ones that have passed, friends as well? Do we think about what we have learned over the course of our lives, and do we understand that it took us time to learn all of this?

Do any of us really realize how fast time moves?
When we get older, we can look back on our life at a much earlier age and recount everything up until now, most of our experiences that we can remember, and so forth... Then we say (but that was a long time ago), but even then do we really know or percieve how much time has went by?

For myself and my own observations, I have come to the conclusion that a lot of people think they have plenty of time, thinking that tommorow will always be there... But we know, or at least some of us do, that tomorrow is in the future, and doesn't exsist yet, most of us just don't anticipate that we may not be here tomorrow... even older people don't really think about it, (not all but some).

Has anyone ever stopped and looked at the posted?, And when you did when was the last time? Have you noticed the date of when it was posted? Or better yet, how many days ago it was started? Before you know it, time has went by so fast...

That's my view, what do others think about this? I would appreciate your input...

Thanks, Daniel




time like numbers isn't of any substance but merely a concept used in the realm of the conscious as a way to measure a given reality ..once that reality is measure then the concept of time either stops or dissipates

in the realm of the unconscious time does not exist because nothing there has any conscious intent for the need to time

Don't wait for time.

Time does not exist.

Only Now exists.

Act now.

Don't wait.

We wait for things to happen.

Therefore we wait for events.

We do not wait for time.

according to cosmology stuff I've read

every thing happens all at once

if we could step outside of the space-time continuum we would see time as a discrete entitiy

but we are stuck in it and experience it linearly

e=mc2, time is a component of that.

e/m=c2

sqaure root of e/m=c

square root of e/m= 3.8m/sec

square root of e/m / 3.8m = one second

then that would mean it took no time at all

No we would not. Time is not an entity.
Time does not exist. It is involved with our perceptions and thought processes.

Within a MEST universe, time is measured according to the movement of matter.

time is of little consequence to me. i only have control over one moment in time. the present moment. i've no control over how much time has past and none over what's left ahead. i firmly believe in procrastination. i'll always put off an unpleasant task untill tomorrow what i could do today. my reasons are two fold; firstly, tomorrow may never come. in such a case i'll never enjoy the benefit of completing the unpleasant task. and secondly, some dumb baaastard just might come along and do the dirty deed for me.

Wow. I've been meaning to join the procrastinators club; but I haven't gotten around to it. I'll do it later. laugh :tongue:

Just to let everyone know, I understand that time is a concept, if you read the way I was asking the question, I mean really read it, then you should understand what I am asking....
