The Secret of Time

I was eighteen when I first realised how little I understood about how Time works. As children we are taught to read it, as if it is a concept easily grasped and rooted in fact. They say it’s entirely structured, moving at a steady pace. A force that cannot be slowed or sped to suit our needs. Instead, Time continues on its everlasting journey at a stubborn pace, only ever moving forward. But I now know this could not be further from the truth.
