Time

It's 1:45 now and it will soon be 1:46.

Time is an entity that is constantly slipping away from us. Time can never be gained, only lost.

Time has such a high priority in our society today. Being "on time" shows politeness, good manners, and respect.

I think that so many people wish there were more hours in the day and more time to do this or that. But will we ever be truly satisfied with time? Even if it was a 32 hour day, would we not simply yearn for a 40 hour day?

Time will never be enough. Time cannot always mend all things. Time cannot ever leave one truly fulfilled.

It's now 1:51 and it will soon be 1:52.
