LOST IN TIME

I finally read the last chapter of the book, that talked about time. Before reading it I used to understand the concept of time as a very simple word, but after reading it I understand what does time means. Time is an important reference in our lives, because everytime we talk we use it. "Yesterday I went to the movies." "My next class is in 20 minutes." "Next week I'm going to Las Vegas." "I like to be here." Even without not noticing it time is an indispensable factor in our lives, where memories take place making our past, where the present is happening right now and becoming past, and the future is about to come. As Savater says, "We see the present comming, we see it going away, but we never see it remaining" and the actual moment we are reading is infinitesimally short.

My favorite part of the book is the part that Pascal wrote. He completely has the reason bye saying that the past should not preoccupy us because it has passed, and we should regret nothing, and the future should concern us even less, since it hasn't arrived and perhaps we never reach it. The present is the time that is truly ours, so we should enjoy and live at the fullest the present, because it is the only thing that we have for sure! Most of the people is always worried about the future, and letting the present go away...... Butas my favorite phrase says, LIFE'S JUST ONCE!

Even though nowbody knows exactly what is time, due to it is a very complex concept, what I can get is that for example there isn't a now, because time has passed and that now has became past. So as I already said, enjoy every moment of your life, live every second like if it was the last, always see the positive sides of life and don't waste your time complaining, so we can spend our present in a good way seeing our past as a correct thing we make.
