Tick, tock We count the seconds, minutes,           hours, days,                     years, decades           of our lives. Why? Time is a man-made construct. We're taught to define our lives by it,           confine our very selves by it           from the time of our birth,           counting down until our death. One, two, three, four. Stop the counting. Do what you have to, but then... As far as I'm concerned time should not be a rule,           but merely a suggestion.
