Chronos

Sometimes timing is your worst enemy. Whether it be the deciding factor for an interview, or you buy some vegetables just before hearing of ebola being spread around, or maybe that one TV show was actually on at 9, not ten. Or possibly you meet someone at a bad time in their life, and you miss out on what could have been. Timing can truly ruin a good thing. The worst part is, as humans, we can do nothing about it. We can try our hardest to right the wrong, but we have no control on the other part. We cant force the train to arrive on time for the big interview, we cant wish we payed more attention to the news. We cant re-meet somebody three months earlier. The best we can do is work for the best possible outcome, and if that isn't optimal, then we try again. We remove ourselves, and we hope for better results the next time around. Rinse and repeat. Trial & error.

Time doesn't exist, but it would make us all feel a whole lot better if it did. Because then we would all have something to blame when time screws us over.
