We do not know what is happening to us, and this is precisely what is happening to us, not to know what is happening to us

Fast food - slow mind

It's common that people never have time. They don't have it but they say time costs money, (especially lawyers), at the same time they can not buy time. How come you don't have time but it costs money? Can't buy it, but can sell it?
Men don't have time so they eat fast food.
It takes 3 hours to digest a stake. Slow digestion- fast food. Cows have time. They eat grass.

People are afraid to loose time. How come you can loose anything you don't own?

When you die you loose the life you have now. The past has been dead already.
The only thing that exists is the connection of the cognitive senses. No one has lived in the past and no one will live in the future: the present is the only form of existence and is it's only property.

Doing nothing is considered to be a waste of time. If time is nothing how come waste is not time?

It's time

It's time to notice
It's time to notice others
It's time to notice others cause there is time
It's time to notice others cause there is no time

Keeping track of time

Experiment:
To help loose track of time we spend 24h in complete darkness at the cellar. To keep it more extreme we didn't use any illuminating objects like phones, ipods etc.

You go to sleep when it's dark and it's dark when you wake up. Still you know it's morning because you're not tired.
It would be possible to loose track of time but that would require much more time...so the experience just gave us a hint of being blind.
Weird ...more time, less time, no time...like it is something we can trade with.
Lots of terms lost their meaning obviously, I guess now we pay more attention to the words being used. You get a better picture if you use "universal" adjectives... bigger than me instead of just big.

It was easy, still we are different now.
We'll carry the darkness in us for some time.

3) Why do we get older

Why does age represent time???
Because we never seem to get younger? Is that the answer? The fact we get older and die and are born again should be enough proof of time moving on??
There are 4 seasons: leaves go green in the Spring, they turn yellow in the Summer,orange in Autumn and they finally fall down in the Winter.
Our life and the process of getting older seems like a decade... 75, 80, 100 years, that's long!! If we'd just try to see ourselves as a small leaf on a tree we'd see how repetitive everything is: after winter comes spring again and again and again and will keep coming...why can't we think it's the same year repeating?
Just because there are some processes going on with our bodies or changes in the environment I should think that we move on?
Then why do I keep repeating the mistakes of "previous" people or their ideas?

2) 30 minutes

The performance lasts 30 minutes. "30" represents a quantity, doesn't it? You have a certain perception of how long it is, am I right? OK. Then why do some "30 minutes" seem longer than others? Why sometimes 5 minutes seem like an hour and 50 minutes like 10?
I believe for most people time passes faster when there's something interesting to do, to look at, something thrilling... but still theres nothing really moving it. Some "30 minutes" are longer - some 30 minutes last for years!

Time does not always move forwards. It moves back as well. Stands still. Yes, physically: stands still!
It's not a clock or numbers - they just have a symbolic meaning, they do not represent it or give any kind of physical direction.
The hands of the clock are moved by the mechanics not by the time - we all now that ...Don't we?!

1) Something new?

You have only heard about a thing. So you think you now how it looks , works, feels, smells etc. But you've never actually seen it, felt it, touched it.
In my opinion you don't know anything untill you've felt it touched it seen it.
You live in 24 h regime and really believe that the past can't be brought back, because the time goes on... Then you should understand that if somethings have been already done in the 70s' it is OK to repeat them, because I haven't been there. Agree?
You've heard about swiss chocolates, how good they are, but have never tried them. Can you be sure that they are good in your mouth?
You've heard that it's painful to get hit with a frying pan, but can you be sure?
