Time...

Time...
Tick...Tock...Tick...Tock...Right?
Lets break it down.
Your cells split. As a child this has no repercussion, your cells do not deteriorate.
But as you leave adolescence, every time your cells split, they lose a little of themselves, and appear to become "older". Which in turn, makes you appear to become "older".
A "Year" is not a true measurement of your human form. It is simply a standard that we CAN live by. A year is simply the Earth moving around the sun one full time. A day, is the Earth turning. And hour is just a segment that was created to cut up, and label pieces of what we call "day" and "night".

Now, truly, some peoples cells PROBABLY deteriorate faster, or slower than other peoples, and therefore, some of us may be cellularly 30 years old, while our peers, are still cellularly 25-28-22-26. But you are all the same "Earth year" age of say...29...

Now there is the moment of NOW, and the illusion of "Future", and the memory of past.
But the only one that exists is NOW. You can be "aware" of the future and the past. But do not DWELL, seek refuge in them, or cling to them mathematically, grammatically, etc. Live with a sense of the universe that is BIGGER than time. Only then can you be timeless in thought.

haven't you already gone over this in the is time an illusion thread? i think so. Also why are you starting so many useless threads do you get a prize for the most space wasted on RIU?

So many words, yet you said nothing.

we start slowly dying when we are born since you have a set amount of cell divisions when you are born. saying they dont matter when you are young is kind of wrong imo.

did this kid eat a bad batch of mushrooms or what?

My take on Time

It's been 12 years and my heart is still broken. They say Time heals. There isn't enough Time. We didn't have enough Time. My life is dictated by Time. Something I can't see or hear. Something I can feel and measure. A stitch in Time saves nine. Time off. Time zone. The clock is ticking. My how Time flies. Yesterday and eternity are the same Time. Timeout. Time waits for on one. When is it my Time? The fabric of Time. Time is linear. Time is money. Wisdom comes with time. No Time for sergeants. Time marches on. There is no escape from Time. I can't change Time. I can't turn back Time. Time is a cruel master. Unforgiving, laughing at me. Taunting me. Pointing bony fingers of accusation at my inadequacies to deal with my unseen foe. I can't beat Time. I can only do Time. Must my parole occur at the end of Time? No governor's pardon here. Hard Time. Penance of Time has no grace, only tears. To live in the moment is torture. To jump from the edge of Time into my beloved's arms will be Time well spent.

i think there's an ulterior motive behind his thread whoring as someone put it in one of his other useless threads maybe he's going to try and become a mod and thinks that posting one useless thread after another will help, i'm just guessing

if you dont like them you dont have to read them.

When you are a child cell division DOESN'T kill you.
It is a PERFECT clone. I can't find the articles, but they found a chemical on our cells, that goes away after a while, and before it's gone, they can split an INFINITE number of times.

There is also an enzyme at the ends of your DNA that allows for a non-perfect break, whenever it splits. So that when a cell splits, if it splits the DNA wrong, it doesn't just make fucked up cells, with missing DNA from now on....

I couldn't find the studies for those, but they are there, so if you search you could find them...
And one of them, I've posted on RIU before...

Plus check this out, there are animals with NO AGE, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senescence

Where did someone else "Put it in one of my other useless threads"?

No I'm not trying to become a mod. I'm simply sharing with RIU, as well as other online stoner communities .

can you get the other link/s? i'd like to read more.

you are absolutely right mate i don't, but i do have to see them every time i click the new post button and i do have to see them when i do a search for something i,e the thread is time an illusion, so in a sense i do have to keep looking at them.
Don't get me wrong i have no problems with what people post but at the rate fs is creating new threads of meaningless dribble it is becoming annoying. he could easily create a thread for all the random ideas he has pop into his head instead of starting a thread for each of them and using up a lot of space for nothing

dude, you come up with some of the most off the wall shit, out of nowhere..... I admire that, always thinking about something, even if it doesnt make any sense to others....


At the very least, you do stimulate my thoughts from time to time, and that is hard to do.......





* W Dragon --- im pretty sure thats what the ignore button is for. tho, I have never used it on someone....

i wouldn't use the ignore button on fs i have nothing against him, he seems like a nice guy i've read through his hash thread and read a lot of his posts. I just don't understand the waste of space creating so many threads i know it doesn't cost us but it does in the respect of server space and also like i mentioned above when your searching for something solid the last thing you need is more for lack of a better term wasted space.
i don't want to come of as rude or offensive like i said i think the op seems like a decent guy but the last couple of days he has been creating a lot of again for lack of a better term wasted space

right on dude, believe me, no feathers ruffled here.

it just came off different than that. i know what your sayin tho, sometimes its kinda hard to get a handle on ol Fin, he is a little out there, but really, we all know someone just like that, and in my circle of friends, im probly that guy... hahahaha

I already looked. I can't find them. One is on RIU somewhere else though.
To find articles try google searching things like:
Cell
Split
Age
Deterioration
Adolescents
Child
DNA

IN YOUR OPINION.

Just like IN MY OPINION, these are things that need to be posted

Shaggy, your cool man. But it really seems like you are just regurgitating ideas that really mean nothing. I mean what does this thread do for me. Yes we're getting older. Yes we're gonna die. Are you trying to sound really deep or existential? For what reason? I understand responding to someone with an intelligent deep thought, but constantly throwing out absurd regurgitated rhetoric doesn't really accomplish much. Except the reputation of sounding like a kook. Like I said, I like a lot of your posts so I check a lot of them out. But it seems like you take a hit of acid, type out a huge page with some ideas (often) only vaguely based on science.

You know what you are? Over analyzing life, my friend. IMO.

yeah i noticed when reading my posts back they seemed a little abrasive, i'm not very good at communicating via the internet and laptop screen, i'm a bit of a caveman lol alls good i'm gonna be on my merry way best of luck to all

It's your fault if this thread does nothing for you, just like ANY thread.

You could read a thread about milkshots, and get something out of it.And
you could read a thread historically, correctly describing dinosaurs, and get NOTHING from it.

Obviously this thread isn't for you. Whatever...
