As I mature‚ I begin to fathom and realize that we are continually waging war against time. Time. All of us‚ in at least one trice in our life‚ wanted to sojourn or hasten time. We wanted to live one moment forever. And sometimes‚ we want to expunge an instance in our lives that we revile and berate.
