Time


What is Time? It could be a tyrant; It could be a friend. Nevertheless, it is unstoppable, immortal, unpredictable. We could only look at it knowing that Time will rend. Though many have tried, none will prevail to conquer Time for to do so they only continue to stale. Thus, we could only accept it like how the elderly accept their Fate. We could only submit ourselves hoping it would be merciful to end us at a better state. Time is unavoidable. It is omniscient. It marks us by watches and clocks like how ranchers brand their livestock. If we try to rebel, it will force us to repent. However, Time is not at all an enemy. It could provide us bliss. It will build us excitement for a holiday or a festival. It will bring gifts of memories that we will not miss. What is Time? That is for you to decide. There are those who tried to befriend it or to oppose it. But remember… Time always preside.
