Time is told by death...
Illustration
Time is told by death, who doubts it? But time is always halved -- for all we know, it is
halved -- by the eye blink, the synapse, the immeasurable moment of the present. Time is
only the past and maybe the future; the present moment, dividing and connecting them, is
eternal. The time of the past is there, somewhat, but only somewhat, to be remembered
and examined. We believe that the future is there too, for it keeps arriving, though we
know nothing about it. But try to stop the present for your present scrutiny, or to measure
its length with your most advanced chronometer.
