As time passes by...

Chapter 10. When I first saw the title of the chapter I said to myself, this chapter is going to be interesting because it will talk about time. After reading it, I considered that it was without a doubt one of the most interesting chapters that I read.
Without a doubt, without measurements of time this world would be a chaos, that’s because measurements like hours, months, moon phases are all part of our lives and how we achieve our daily chores. We need time to have an order and also to have a standard way all the world communicate.
I was also very amazed of the dilemma about “this”. As Hagel said “...it is surprising that those things about which it seems we should be most certain...what we are tempted to call the - concrete, now, here, this – completely lose their content as soon as we try to think about them”. After thinking about this statement I was amazed because it’s very interesting of how when we try to be more concrete we end being more abstract. For example last time I received a call from my mom and she was trying to say me where a watch was located. She first said me, the watch is there in your room, the problem was that my room is big, so I then said like where in my room, she then told me like there in your desk and I had the same problem because my desk has many drawers. Therefore I started to tell her like is it in this drawer or on that drawer. We had a little discussion until I found it, which took me around 5 minutes.
So in resume, time is very important for humanity because it is the way we measure almost everything. Even though some times when we want to be concrete in time it’s very hard to be completely concrete.
