The Invention of Time
In a world without clocks, you would more easily be in tune with nature.
In a world attuned with nature, you would rise with the sun, and you would set with the sun. Your eyesight would be excellent.
You would eat the food that grows in your environs. You would grow it or find it and pick it. You would fish in the streams, and you would get water from the springs.
You would know only natural materials. There would be no chemicals. There would be no need for make-up because there would be two red roses, one for each cheek. Your lips would be red with berries picked from the vine.
Exercise would be integrated into your life. There would be no special places set aside for exercise. The world would be a gym, and the world would be a spa. All the exercise equipment would be set up along the way, tree limbs to swing by, logs to jump over, rivers to swim in and somersaults to turn. You would walk to work. There would be no traffic jams, and if there were, you would take it as an occasion to make friends. You would not hurry. There would be no hurry. Time would not be of the essence.
You would not know pressure, deadlines, urgency. They would not exist. There would be no tension to subside. There would be no dieting. There would be no high blood pressure. Anxiety would not be known. There would be no occasion for it.
You might work hard, but you would not be removed from the work you do. Your life would be right there in your own hands. There would not be employer nor employee. Everyone would have his own business, so to speak. You would be self-sufficient. Never a cog in the wheel, you would be the wheel, and the leader of your life on Earth, all because there would be no clocks to rule you.
You would do somersaults across the surface of the world.
Even if your feet stayed in a radius of one mile, you would traverse the Universe.
Your eyes would follow the sun. There would be no need of equipment.
Who invented the mechanics of clocks? And who invented the need for them? Living outside, you would know what time of day it is by the sun, and you would know what time of night by looking up and submerging yourself in the language of the blue stars sparkling and the white moon serene.
You would be clothed in the deeds of your day.
You would not need anything because you would know you had everything.
You would know Me because you would never have not known Me. You would see the Hand that revolves the world and puts everything into place and everything into motion. You would be the willing spinning wheel that weaves the cloth and rolls out the world that appears each day.
You would mount your life like a great steed, and you would ride it until the sun goes under the horizon to shine on the other side of the world.
All because there are no clocks, no timetables, no bus to catch or to miss, but life, life alone to ride on. How close you would be to God’s Creation, and how close you would be to God. Uninterfered with, you would know exactly Who you are and you would know the seeming God above, and the God within Who serves you. You would know what you are about. You would not think: “What is life all about anyway?” You would know what life is about, and you would live it happily forever after.
