Time is a curious thing. One can never quite comprehend what it is that makes it tick. However one thing is clear; when we enjoy ourselves, in the sense of mastering a skill, time moves shiftily; when we want time to move forwards, it appear it turns ever so slowly, bordering on turning the other way. No matter, time is what time is; a concept created by man.
Time is not a concept, it is an idea. An idea created my man for their comprehension. What else could we have called it when naming the time of day? The rotation of the Earth around the sun? When a person ask what's the time, or rotation i suppose in this case? "Oh the rotation is at 30 degrees" when the time is nine in the morning or evening. Then I suppose how would we distinguish between sunrise and sunset? Would we then use concave or convex?
These questions facinates me, mainly due to the surrealistic fascination with how our customs came about. It's a life long quest for some, that is to say their mission in life, to seack out ancient civilisations and learn their knowhow and development. Many are anthropologists some arkeologists or even palaeontologists, and then there are the average historian who collect knowledge from what was the result of our conquests and written words. Many are those who spend their time solving this question of evolution and human progression, but even more look to the future to see the further progression of our species. However most are those who live in the present oblivious to the know-how of past, present and future development of civilisation.
My belifs are that natrual selection had an important part in the progression of our species. However I still don't understand why we have difficult names on some things whilst on others we have easy short names to remember. Like time.

Heave away!
Finally I can say this place in the frosty outskirts of Bergen may, by some recallection, be compared to a home of mine. Though only remotly compared. I do enjoy this place, and there is never a day where I dispise someone, although there are those who are friends of mine that are crapy coworkers, but ok otherwise. I suppose my later promorion and the relive that the slackers are done soon, have come over us. But it's much more than that the people here are conected and we have conected. The mood is great. So I thrive obiously, and yet I miss my cosy flat in the capital. For not to say my friend there. Even so this place here, can be claimed as a home for another 5 mounths^^
