T is for Tuesday. T is for thing. T is for Theories. T is for Time. . .

Time is a fun subject to write about because it is on everyone’s mind. It is one of those things where you can find anything to talk about it. For example, why do we need time? How would life be like without clocks? Actually, for that matter, how would life be like if humans didn’t care about time? That is a question to ponder. . . for a couple minutes. Today is Tuesday. Here's the catch phrase- big deal. If weeks or months did not exist, and no one followed any sense of time, people would do whatever they wanted whenever they wanted. There would be chaos, from our point of view, but then again, would there be any chaos if time was not an important factor in society?
I find it hard to imagine a life with no time constraints. However, would we be free then, still? If time was not a factor in our lives and our society, would we really have all the time in the world to do something, then?
Logic is the key. If time was not an important constraint, then something else would replace it as a constraint. This ties into economics and philosophy, because this blog questions how humanity would function if there was no sense of time or direction. Does humanity find something else as a constraint, then? It is not possible to exist without constraints or limits. Therefore, a constraint is necessary in existence. Existance cannot be infinite. If this is confusing, please tell me and I will add/rewrite it. Until then, on to Wednesday!
