It goes faster, as you get older.24 years ago! Where does the time go?
Time isn't real. That's what I've learned. There is no past, only memories.

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is USD, King of Fiats;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
No monetary value remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and golden sands stretch far away.
