Time waits...

I haven't worn a watch in a few years. I stopped wearing one when I was in Europe, mainly because it was feeling heavy on my wrist. But then I realized, at least when I was in Brussels, that time wasn't terribly important anymore. It was the experience, and the here and now that was important.

Yesterday was a nice day for a walk, and I went to the nearby college town for a change of pace. I made a loop through downtown, lost in the niceness of the day, and how good it felt to be walking. I paid no attention to time. It didn't matter. What mattered was the glorious day and feeling free of constraints. There are enough time constraints on me at work. I need more places where time is of little consequence.
