CONSIDER THIS...
RELATIVITY OF TIME
---You probably have all experienced this at one time or another- it is how the same amount of time can appear different. For our purposes we will take a 4 hour period and how this can appear different.
---If we spend 4 hours doing something we like to do with someone we like to be with and someone with whom we feel comfortable, the time seems to fly by. We even say things like, ''Time flies,'' or, ''I wonder where the time went?''
---If we spend the same amount of time, 4 hours, doing something we hate to do, each second can seem like an eternity. The time drags on and on and we find ourselves looking at the clock wondering why it is moving so slowly. We can sometimes wonder if it is broken?
---We see through this that time is very relative. Relative to what we do and our relationship to it, whether we like what we do or not. If we are having a good time than time goes by quickly. If we are not having so good of a time, than time creeps by. It seems that doing things we enjoy doing is preferable. It is like the difference between ''Heaven'' and ''Hell.''
CONSIDER THIS...
ASSUME
---Some of us may have seen this when it ''aired'' on television originally. It was on a segment of the ''Odd Couple'' with Tony Randall and Jack Klugman. It seems the guys were in Court for some reason when Felix said this, ''Don't Assume anything, because when you assume something, you make an Ass of U and Me. How true this can be.
---We find ourselves doing this quite often. We think we know how something is going to turn out, even before we embark on the event. We somehow think our past performance governs what are going to do. We let our ''past'' control our ''future.'' We think we know in advance how things are going to be. We ASSUME things are going to turn out as we predict.
