About This Quote

Time is always in a constant flowing state, never standing still. Even when you are waiting for something to happen, time is moving. When you are reading this, time is flowing into your eyes, into your brain, into your fingers, until your finger tips touch the print on the page. Time is all around you, always moving in one direction.

That’s why it’s so surprising when the passage of time makes you feel like you are in a stasis. And if it's hard to notice time when it's in motion, imagine how hard it would be to notice when it's in a non-moving state. That’s how weird it is to be constantly surprised by the passage of time.
