We ask the clock
We ask the clock, how much time do I have left till…as if time were sand in a bag with a hole in the bottom. It is hard for us to see time as anything else.
But was it always so? As a child, I had a puzzle that showed time as a circle: four seasons that just kept going round each other. Today, we have holidays all the year “round,” telling us how to live those days: big family meals at Thanksgiving, beer and brats on the 4th. We say “What goes round comes round.”
Our bosses may look at time as how many tasks can I get done by this person for this many Dollars?
Our elders may ask, How long will this go on? Or they may say You are doing just what your father did before you.
