Time

Greetings good citizen, the only people that believe time travel is possible are writers and pretty much every show that isn't a medical drama, sitcom or a cop show has a time travel element to it.

Since time is a 'function' of motion it isn't what we perceive it to be nor can it be 'manipulated' outside the fevered mind of the writer under a deadline.

Because time is an 'illusion' we are susceptible to being tricked, especially by people who pretend to understand time.

But let's stick to what we know. Because the universe [which may be a whole lot bigger than we imagine] is perpetually in motion, time behaves 'linearly', with moments becoming minutes, minutes into hours and so on. We can mentally relive the past but once 'the moment' passes it is gone, period.

[Bizarrely, this tendency to live in an 'imagined past' is more widespread than one would expect, but this strays from today's topic of time itself into the realm of psychosis, which is also severely 'underestimated' by the 'reality impaired.']

Every individual is aware that time is a limited commodity but we tend to ignore that reality when more immediate needs take priority.

The need to breathe followed fairly closely by the need to sleep and eat tends to distract us from the larger clock of life itself.

The biological imperative has been dampened considerably by the failing economic system as 'failure to launch' becomes the rule rather than the exception.

There is only so much 'pie' and if you fail to, er, 'procure' a large enough of a piece you'll find you have missed your 'window of opportunity.'

Now this is the fault of the feckless, the 'I've got mine' crowd who sees YOUR needs as THEIR OPPORTUNITY. The banking system EXISTS to exploit your limited 'window of opportunity'.

Is this any way to run a civilization?

[Under capitalism it's the ONLY way!]

Borrow or perish (and don't I forget the F-U, pay me part!)

Why can't we live at peace instead of recklessly exploiting the needs of the impoverished for continued personal self-enrichment?

This is the part the disadvantaged can't find a way around and what LEGISLATION is supposed to prevent!

Government, we're doing it WRONG...(I once again apologize for the 'news to no one'.)

Life itself is a series of steps and they all start with the first one. Why are we playing 'king of the hill' when none of us can survive on our own?

Tick-tock Good Citizen, we haven't got time for this nonsense...but it won't STOP until YOU put a stop to it!

ASP provides the HOW, I'm providing the WHY, all you need to do is nod.

Thanks for letting me inside your deeply troubled mind,
