are there words of wisdom you live by?

Time is not something you have. Time is something you make.

Ma told me I'll eat a pound of dirt before I die. Pa told me it ain't dirt, it's shit, and it ain't a pound, it's a ton.

Thanks folks for your sage words. Luvyoo.

Those that know can't explain. Those who don't can't understand.

Time doesn't exist, clocks exist. Time is just an agreed upon construct. We have taken distance (one rotation of the earth, and one orbit of the sun) divided it up into segments, then given those segments labels. While it has uses, we have been programmed to live our lives by this construct as if it was real. We have confused our shared construct with something that is tangible and thus become its slave.

time is a measure of linear sequential existence....

you are right ...we use time as a measurement of our existence



eternity is right now....one word can change the universe



history was a moment ago


tomorrow is not promised...all we have is today


yesterday is a cancelled check....tomorrow is a promisory note....today is ready cash....spend it wisely!



when you sleep you transcend both time and space....thus where astral projection comes from-



my words of wisdom for tonite are-

there is no time like the right time and that time is now

you can never have enough time-
and you cant 'make' time...it makes you

but gregs makes a lot of time for himself on the web-as we all do-

"health wealth and happiness...and time to enjoy them all" -benjamin franklin-

you really are an octopus-

And when the world is ended, there will be no time, as there will be no one to construct it? It has been described as a priori, and I am inclined to agree that it exists with or without our experience.

Not having to do with my earlier point, which is rhetorical. I want some of what you're smoking.

If you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room.
I'm in a good place as there are many brilliant thinkers here.

No good deed goes unpunished.
I try to be a masochist most of the time.
