I have always marveled how the word for Goddess in Sanskrit
devi when transliterated into Roman script; also, incidentally, India’s most common last name is just one letter away from the English word for
devil. I woke up well before dawn this morning with the solution. Who knows how long my subconscious has been working on this? Who knows just how harebrained these ideas are? You decide.

And yet, as we’ve evolved, humans have created a system under which we measure our successes and milestones, creating a sense of time anxiety. This “fear of time running out,” as Albom puts it, is not just a mortal reckoning or fear of death, but fear of a wasted life. The pressures we put ourselves under to make each moment one of progress has certainly propelled humankind forward, but what has it done for our collective happiness? Look at the world around you, and try to understand different concepts of time. How different would your life look if you moved not based on a clock, but by your instincts? Would your productivity differ? Would your happiness? What does it feel like to conceptualize time in terms of ebbs and flows of the tides, rather tha
