It indoctrinates them into society. But it does serve a custodial function, as well.------------------

It is notable that when people use the word "eternity" in normal parlance, it is usually with a negative connotiation, as in "the kettle took an eternity to boil"------------------

In regard to being out of sync: does anyone else feel, like me, that their real "working day" begins after they go to bed?That is when I do my real work of planning, imagining, dreaming and visualizing. ------------------

The rubbayat of Omar Khayyam is all about time and rather depressing http://www.sacred-texts.com/isl/khayyam.txt ------------------

Time can fly or can drag. Sometimes it does both!------------------

I think you have just described routine. For me routine is absolutely when time drags and speeds up at the same time.------------------

Boredom is one thing, but the real challenge is not to want time to go more quickly when we are suffering.------------------

ok... so have been actively paying attention to those "wasted" moments and not filling the gaps and this is what i have discovered - when i am home on my own i am really quite unaware of time passing... the only indication is the movement of the sun so i can generally tell when it's afternoon as opposed to morning... mind you, this is becoming askew as we approach the autumnal equinox (completely different story there)... when i am most keenly aware of time is when i am in company and i notice a tendancy to become bored around others... case in point - we recently attended a family reunion of sorts and as much as i care about my in-laws and their extended family, i am never so bored or more aware of time as when in their company... ------------------

I have been thinking of our use of past, future and present tenses. If you put something in the future, it will never happen. A teacher at my school disliked me. That teacher put every good thing in the future for me, ie: "you will be very good at maths one day." Needless to say, I never succeeded at maths.------------------

Mak, just thinking about you and popped in to see hows it going in your world  No watch, no clock. I feel time. I am aware within the quarter hour the time of day. Of course, the suns positions aids me  ------------------

Yes Juni, it is believed that we all have an inner sense of time, which can be developed. But that is one extra sensory perception I have no intention of cultivating.------------------

It wasn`t necessarily intentionally developed  I work out side 7 months of the year. Time and the calendar both are visable internally and externally and honing the perception. ------------------

We seem to come equipped with different senses that can preserve us or destroy us. Deathists are always talking about our internal clocks. The most insightful thing that Linda said was that senile dementia was the person's way of defeating aging, via a "second chilhood"------------------
