Time

"Why does the time of childhood and youth seem so long and the rest of life seem to go so quickly, to be so short? Time is the potentiality of experience, the number of experiences

"As we are, experiences happen to us - we do not, and we cannot, use them consciously until we learn to control the physical and emotional energy that pours out when when we are confronted by sudden, unexpected occurrences. For example, a person reads something in the paper, or hears of something, and at once he becomes identified; he feels intensely; and valuable emotional and mental energy is wasted; he has shortened his time. The same with difficult experiences with people, which may cause us to unwind, in a few minutes or hours, years of potential normal unwinding.

"Time is the infinite, absolute, potential of all experience."
