The purpose of posts like this is to gather up thoughts, and pen them down. This series of blogs is usually written to calm my ass and help me document the life in a way which proves helpful in future. You are welcome to read these (that is why I share them), but they were written with sleepy eyes during a calm night, so we are not talking about grammatical mistakes or typos, this is about thoughts, about rush.
Time is an interesting thing. Physics says that Time began when Big Bang happened, and there was no sense of Time, as we know it, before it. However, the culture to keep a track of time, started not so long ago. Literary pieces available to us say that the trend to record time started in the Buddhist Monasteries, where they needed to wake up before the first light of the morning. Originally there used to be some person who used to stay up all night, and wake up people on Time. Then, there came the dreadful Clock, followed by its availability to the masses, followed by the Your meeting is about to begin in 10 minutes.
The need to keep track of time cannot obviously be denied. We are not living under a rock now, this rock has been transformed into a building with internet, which makes us communicate to the people just on the opposite side of globe. Communication is inevitable, but the need to keep ultra granular track of time is probably not.
So, what if the clock stops, and humans forgot about the existence of time. A single flash, and every mother-fucking clock disappeared, and to make things better we forgot that the concept of tracking time existed, and to even make it better we forgot about the concept of death. Realistically, what probably will happen is, we will figure it out again, but that gap till we discover it again will be beautiful. There is also a chance that we might become more productive. It is analogous to not being able to solve a question in a competitive programming contest because of less time, but solving that exact same thing when we forgot about the tick tock. Maybe, we will be able to solve some really big problems, which we could not do otherwise just because we were too worried about the track of time. Let us call this state of forgetting the existence of time as timelessness. I read about this practice somewhere, and now I want to try this out. The best way could be somehow disable the clock in laptops, and then all the visible clocks in my reach.
The discovery of Time was destined, but maybe, just maybe, if we wouldn't have thought about the methods to record it, life could have been simpler and much more beautiful. And perhaps it is so in some version of Earth in some Multiverse.
But on this version am thinking to sleep now, worrying about starting the next day on Time. :(
