“Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that the stuff life is made of.” -- Benjamin Franklin

I've been thinking a lot lately about the importance of time. There are moments in my life where time proceeds excrutiatingly slowly. For instance, waiting at the airport for a flight, watching a bad movie, waiting in a doctor's office...

And then there are moments when time just simply evaporates, leaving me wondering how so much time had been allowed to slip away unnoticed. For instance, when I am focusing on a programming task, days off with my wife, or writing an important email...

I can't believe it's been a month since my last contract ended. Where did the time go?

“Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.” -- Douglas Adams
