Time is all relative based on age and experience.

When you are a child an hour is a

long time to wait but a very short time when that’s all the time you are allowed on
your iPad. As a teenager time goes faster the more deadlines you have and the more
you procrastinate. As a young adult, you think you have forever to live and don’t
appreciate the time you spend with others. As a middle-aged adult, time flies by as
you watch your children grow up. And finally, as you get old and you have fewer
responsibilities and fewer demands on you, time slows. You appreciate each day and
are thankful you are alive. An hour is the same amount of time for everyone yet it
can feel so different in how it goes by.

They had always called it the green river. It made sense. The river was green. The
river likely had a different official name, but to everyone in town, it was and had
always been the green river. So it was with great surprise that on this day the
green river was a fluorescent pink.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't give her a good explanation about what had
happened. It didn't even really make sense to him. All he knew was that he froze at
the moment and no matter how hard he tried to react, nothing in his body allowed
him to move. It was as if he had instantly become a statue and although he could
see what was taking place, he couldn't move to intervene. He knew that wasn't a
satisfactory explanation even though it was the truth.
