Opinion: Time, like our freedoms, should not be wasted

There seems to be something like consensus within the international scientific community that time began almost 14,000 billion years ago when they believe the Big Bang occurred.  That is an almost completely incomprehensible number for a human being to digest. Think about it! Our standard measurement for ONE year is how long it takes for the earth to complete one orbit around its sun. Now, gravity has kept me attached to earth’s surface for only 90 of those orbits, but more than several people have already concluded that I have been around a very long time.  Time is a unidirectional forward progression of events. It can’t move backwards, no matter the large number of its fictional treatments in books and motion pictures.

His father owned and operated a six-stool, two-booth diner in downtown Hartford. She responded to this by saying that one of the great advantages of always telling the truth is that you don’t have to remember what you said. That statement, my first occasion to contemplate the importance of truthfulness, and/or the lack thereof, has stayed with me.
