Thoughts about the time (63)

from The Swedish Terminator · host Gert Forsström

As a child you don´t notice that time is passing. I don´t understand why it is so or even if it is so. It´s a long time since I was a child. My son, 25 years old doesn´t have a watch. I guess he can get the time on his mobile. (We have one but we only use it when we travel). In my work as a teacher I had to think a lot of what time it was. I had to come in time to the lessons and therefore I had to have a watch. In the class I also had to think: “Am I going to have time to do this, how long time does it take to do it, how much time remains?”. A common question between teachers is: “What time is it?”. Now I don´t have to think very much of time anymore – I live kind of timeless (at least a little). My wife says time passes so fast. Without you knowing it the week is gone. And I can prove that it´s true. My pillbox contains seven spaces for each week, totally 28 spaces. When I watch it I understand that time is passing. I can see that with so many pills I should be old and as fast I´ve filled it, it´s empty again… I take nine pills daily and to fill it takes half an hour. And it seems as if it doesn´t matter if you got a lot to do or not. Time passes anyway. Is it because one has most part of one´s life in the wing mirror? Who knows? If you know it please tell me. But, if you walk upstairs, you will discover that time doesn´t always pass so fast.
