The TRAGEDY of TME

I have always wondered why people complain that there isn't enough time to do certain things that are meant to be done. It puzzles me to see a great crowd of people who never seems to have enough of this entity called TIME, so I decided to ponder on the issue and this is part of what i came up with:

Time represents a bridge between the vastness of eternity past and present and therefore has a temporal effect. Alongside it comes a force that causes evolution, in the sense that almost everything caught up in its axis undergoes change towards disorderliness just so it (time) can end and then pave way for the next phase of eternity.

Now here is Man, caught up in the complexity of the effects cased by the ever-changing time. He was originally created to be its master, but due to the dramatic turn of events in Eden, he now lives at the mercy of time, who on the other hand keeps moving towards a state of increased disorderliness (entropy).

Now, since the substance that makes man himself is eternal, he is therefore created to function in the realm of the eternal and his body, which acts as a case, should interact with the physical by helping him subdue the effect of time just so he can live to his optimum capacity.

But ever since the Eden effect, the Case began to live under the weight of time, thereby subjecting itself [and man] to the deteriorating effect of time's caresses, which thus holds for the fact that someday it becomes weak and dies, leaving the fate of the real man to the hands of his creator. This is where the problem lies;

Because the real man was designed to function as an eternal being, the ideas and grace he needs are bestowed to him so that he has the ability to see the things in the realm of time (the physical) and use things that are abstract to cause an effective change that, not only benefits himself, but the whole of life. This explains why people by default begin to recognize the flaws on earth and yearn for a change just so it can be made right. i guess it's suffice to say that this feeling is insatiable.The body on the other hand, being submissive to the effect of time cannot provide a lasting support to the inner man without breaking down beneath it's heavy load, therefore, someday it will have to cease to exist.

Therefore, in other for man to have the best in life, he should take into cognizance the fact that someday his body will have to break down in respect to time's due process, and he'd wish he had left a mark in the sands of time!
