Time. Such an overruling concept. Without time there's nothing. Absolutely nothing.
Thank God for time you'd say. That's true, but have you ever considered both sides of the medallion?
You are in a constant battle with time. Which brings you in a constant battle with yourself. Like there are two different sides of you. One that goes right and one that goes left. Consider this example.
The past few days I've been with my family in a town near the sea. I had so much fun, just being away from everything and (almost) everyone. It almost brought me my minimum dose of loneliness (see 'Loneliness.. by Mayhe')! Even though I enjoyed myself every second of the ride, there was one downside: I missed my boyfriend terribly. It's a very weird sensation. Everyone has missed someone, I am safe to presume, but this felt so different to me. I don't know whether I had ever felt this feeling before. I had boyfriends before and I missed them aswell, but it felt as if a piece of me went missing for a couple of days and I was in a constant struggle to try and find that piece, just to find myself missing it even more. Now that we have this example in the back of our heads it's not so difficult to make the analogy.
Time frame 1: You miss your boyfriend i.e. you want time to go as fast as possible, just to be reunited.
Time frame 2: You are finally far far away from all the clutter in your life, school, the drag of every day life i.e. time should be allongated, there should be an extra 24 hours in every day of the week.
This is a silly thing to be discussing, you might think, but if you just put your thoughts to it for a couple of minutes, you might see that in every aspect of life you will see both sides of that time-medallion.
Well, I can already hear you thinking now: 'Gosh, when I'm on a holiday the only sort of time I want is extra time, let time be as long as possible!'
Is that so? Even when you are on a holiday most of us who are lying in the sun, will most likely think -at least for a split second- 'wow, can't wait for that tan to kick in', indicating that time just can't go fast enough.
Just think about it.
