Crichton: Time ends
What is it about the human condition and perception regarding time? When you are young, time seems to stand still ... almost. The speed is almost imperceptible unless you only have a couple weeks before school starts again.
However, as you grow older, time seems to take its rightful place and exercise a greater degree of control over your life. The demands of adult life seem to accelerate and amplify the control time has over you until weeks seem to be no more than days and the seasons fly by.
You stand around in the mid point of your life (for me at least) and your children are nearly grown and hopefully well adjusted, you have acquired some possessions so now what do you do? You soldier on until you die or retire (can be the same thing for some) waiting for the sunset on life.
I hope I can just break even.
