i can hear the second hand of my clock ticking away right now.. and all i can think about is how fast and how constant time goes by. it won't ever stop for anyone- it just goes and goes. makes me wonder if i used up all those ticks and tocks well and how much time i had ever wasted. anyway, since we can't go back, we look forward and PRESS ON.
