A Life Without Timekeeping?

图片取自 You. Me. Us

Try to imagine a life without timekeeping

　　You probably can't. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie.

　　Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deers do not fret over passing birthdays.

　　Man alone measures time.

　　Man alone chimes the hour.

　　And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures.

　　A fear of time running out.

The Time Keeper, p8
