Food for thought..only if you have the time to mull over this..

This I write since I enjoy timelessness and it is a very rare commodity these days atleast the way my life has got configured in the recent years!

Time is afterall a man made concept. Man keeps coming up with newer and newer ideas and methods to change the world anyway..WHAT IF..The whole concept of 24 hours being a day is changed to add 12 more hours to everyday. Should the sun going up and going down necessarily decide when we eat and when we sleep. Why is the sun allowed to decide one's age? If everyday is stretched by 12 more hours, say, I can think of many many more things to add to the recipe of everyday, an important ingredient being "timelessness" to put my feet up and relax.

Isn't it a great way to slow down the ageing process..while there are so many artificial cosmetics in the market that attempt to defy age, why not make it scientific thus!! Ok, is it going to cause havoc to your body clock, with night and day routines getting mixed up?..so let us stretch everyday by 24 more hours then and make it a 48 hour day then..not that i mind! The only issue here is that the much awaited weekends will take longer to arrive, but then there is a price that we pay for everything.

I started writing this for fun, but the more I think about it, am actually convinced it willl have great positive effects on this world..may be this is the only way to slow down. Few centuries later, this might just be spoken of in Geography text books as a concept ( of course there may be no concept of a text book then!!) Another thing, this will help our ageing parents feel just half their age and feel energetic in their minds too. Also, this is another good way of helping our children not grow up so fast as they are today..

I hear of 10 yr old boys in India asking girls out..and btw times have changed too..I hear of girls the same age actively pursuing boys too..Sorry, am an old timer at heart..why is this world going so fast, and where is it headed in this maniacal race.. my head is reeling..am I alone in this thought ????
