I am oblivious to the current time as I type these words to you. I eventually made it about four hours before spoiling the feeling of liberation that comes with escaping the grasp of time.

I fought the urge to glance at the computer clock – a gesture I perform frequently out of habit.

I tempered the otherwise uncontrollable desire to constantly check my cell phone clock.

I dodged the myriad devices – all 13 of them – displaying the time throughout my home.

What slaves we have become, to a concept of our own creation. Liberate yourself. Periodically avoid the clocks and embrace your newfound – albeit temporary – freedom.
