moments of ending are moments of judgment
re: Sarah S. "Time Does Exist"
I too agree that human tallying is an indicator of time. The last few days i have been in my carrel crosses off days until my thesis is due and your post really made it apparent how we tally days, minutes, seconds, and even years regularly as we set goals for ourselves in life.
On Thursday we talked about the "measurement of progress" and the idea of non-locality. Though some may deny the fixedness of time and the constant flow of change within life memories and milestone all mark the beginning or "end" of certain periods in our life. Friday marks the end of the week and midnight marks the end of the day. In order to feel comfortable with ourselves and the progress we make on a daily basis, it seems only appropriate that we tally much like other forms of nature be it a tree or sea worm.
