    Time

    Can you ever have enough?
    Do you desire time more than money and love?
    Does time really exist or do we only imagine it to facilitate our understanding of the universe?

    Yes, sometimes too much,
    No
    Time is imaginary
    It's Deja-vu all over again!

      The perception of time is subjective.

      I often wish I was a fly, firstly so the day would last a lot longer as it would all be slowed down, and secondly so I might enjoy my own cooking which admittedly tastes like tulip.

        As a being that perceives time as linear there will be a finite amount - just the right amount between start and end

        No - love and money more than time - unless I have seconds to live in which case I reserve the right to change my mind

        Time exists and helps to facilitate our understanding, but because we perceive it in one way doesn't mean that's the only way.

        or, according to early - Aladdin Sane -Bowie

        "Time flexes like a wh-ore, falls wa-nking to the floor" Not sure how THAT works

          Much the same way a watched kettle never boils but posting on CUK makes the day fly past. I barely have time to open Visual Studio it goes by so quickly.

            Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
            You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
            Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
            Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

            Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
            You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
            And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
            No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

            And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking
            And racing around to come up behind you again
            The sun is the same in the relative way, but you're older
            Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

            Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
            Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
            Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
            The time is gone, the song is over, thought Id something more to say

            Home, home again
            I like to be here when I can
            And when I come home cold and tired
            It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
            Far away across the field
            The tolling of the iron bell
            Calls the faithful to their knees
            To hear the softly spoken magic spells.
            Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!
