This flash essay is part of a collaborative, constrained-writing challenge undertaken by some members of the Bangalore Substack Writers Group. Each of us examined the concept of ‘TIME’ through our unique perspective, distilled into roughly 400 words.
To realize the value of time at a young age is very important. Time travel fascinates me too, but not to go back and fix something, but to travel across galaxies, the Brahmand, as they say!
It is good to remind ourselves, daily, that we are mortal!
Loved this piece Kavan! You’ve described the dichotomy of life being precious because we’re all literally on a clock, with living life on the clock to meet deadlines and therefore barely really living at all so beautiful. This hit hard!
