Time Redux (v2.0)

I tend to flit from topic to topic like an erratic 160-pound hummingbird, so for another note on time. And that's erratic, not erotic. Definitely non-erotic.

Anyway, I measure time in moments, not hours. A moment can last for seconds or span weeks, though it seems that my moments have been ginsu'd for many years now. But that's why seconds have but little meaning - moments are the events and living grain of existence.

If ten thousand seconds pass but there is no meaningto them, did they ever exist at all? That is why I try to treasure situations and not count the minutes.

There is a time for solitude, just as there is a time for sleep. But we can not sleep all the time.

Is it safe to assume that you haven't spent your leap second yet?
