“ How did it get so late so soon? ”
~ Dr. Seuss
It’s a fact of life for every living being. We live inside it, and can never escape it. We measure it obsessively, from the smallest scale to the galactic. If you lose it, there’s no getting it back. We consider it valuable, yet often think nothing of wasting it. You might think you have plenty of it, only to realize you are running short. Not one of us has any control over it. On one hand, it’s totally arbitrary. On the other, it’s never questioned.
