This is just another thought that I had. I am not even sure if it makes sense, but I will let you be the judge.

What is time? Is it just a concept as fragile as love, hate, or the human life? Within time all of these things have a chance to increase or decrease in their makeup. But just like time they can be reduced to a personal perception. In due time and with time, we will agree on what we think others would without regard for our own thoughts and feelings. Many humans do not take into consideration that we are born at different times, with different aspects of “what time it is” to offer. Your biological clock differs from mine, and because of restraints within our minds and society’s hold on us, we force ourselves to follow what is called the standard time. It’s a slap in the face that only my subconscious can feel. The physical effects are subtle, but begin to appear in the form of what we call old age. The measurement we call time is never exact; in fact, positioning and point of reference are requirements for this unstable evaluation of the universe to make sense. Where we are is never exact, and what we’re doing can never be classified as nothing; but the way we have been taught to assess our lives/experiences says otherwise. Hell, scientists are still baffled by who we are and what we are, yet so many people act as if they know simply because they have a name. Even under basic time constraints’ having a pretty good idea just isn’t good enough. Being comfortable with or without an answer and having the correct answer can be considered one in the same. But I would say that when dealing with the time, here and now, and who you are, you may want to be as accurate as possible. Accuracy in any one of these fields is made greatest by individual involvement in one’s own self. How far are you willing to go into your own psyche for the answers? It is important that we realize that what the world refers to as keeping time is more liken to momentary lapses in judgment. Not only do you have to think outside yourself to understand it, you must in some form deny a piece of individuality in order to function correctly. Time is only useful when referencing a point of origin in relation to its destination; however, all things can exist in multiple places at once even when we are not aware of them. Variations in altitude and movement alter time by just enough to say that you should be more attuned to your own unique standard of time. This is why time could only make absolute sense from a personal standpoint. The current use of time is bias and makes our biological clocks seem somewhat useless. Many of us don’t understand our biological clocks as result of our dependence on the wristwatch. To combat people/individuals listening to their biological clock words like lazy and lethargy were created. It’s bigger than just not feeling like it, or not wanting to do it. Our body may not have the energy to perform the said task. But our guilt gets the best of us, making us feel emotionally stable while completing our work. Society can also coerce us to perform by insults, and denial of the very substances that allow us to live. Time plays a major role in your life. Some things in your life you just won’t get to because you think you don’t have time, you feel old, or you think it’s a waste of time. This way of perceiving the world around us is frustrating and causes a shortened lifespan (stressful). Instead of concentrating on one’s own self we are forced into catacombs of denial and ignorance. © 2007 by Ofrikanize
