Time

We always seem to have too much or not enough. It drags when we are bored and fly’s when we are joyous. What a peculiar thing time really is, if there is such a thing at all. We see our bodies grow and change and believe it the work of time. We season the seasons pass and once again time is credited. But is it really time in the way we are thinking about it? What if there is no time and everything that is and ever was is still right here right now with us and all around us. Often I think that the linear perception of time is more of an analogy used so we have a means to understand something that is so simplistic in nature that we cannot understand it. To believe that time is linear as modern thinking would have us believe leads us to accept that there was a beginning and there will be an end. But if that is the case then what exists beyond those stated boundaries? More then that how can we even define those boundaries.

No I think time to be circular and infinite. We often view things as happening so long ago or so far away but I really believe that they are right here and now we just cannot see or interact with those passed or future moments. Additionally, it is a question that is the answer in that time is different for all of us. It is the same and different all at once, it is the same force but its effects vary. At least that is what I think.
