Time

I'm not so sure I share everyone's enthusiasm for the article on time. While I did appreciate the writing and enjoyed reading it, I wasn't necessarily as effected by it as much as everyone else seems to be. It was decently insightful and I loved some of the examples that she gave (especially the one about the Jazz musician), but that's all they were to me, neat stories. I think I was even less affected because she spends a lot of time talking about paintings and sculptures, art forms that I have minimal interest in. I could see myself enjoying this article more if it was more focused on time in the practice of writing specifically instead in a more general sense. Or perhaps I am too shallow to fully appreciate what she is trying to say through this article, either way, it was a good read for me but not much more.

  1. WOW! Jesse this is phenomenal. I am going to go out on a limb here and say that you are one of the most handsome and intelligent young men in our class. I admire your work and aspire to be everything that you are. Keep on keeping on you old devil you!

  2. Yes, I could see it both ways. In some ways this piece on Time was a little tedious and long but it also made one think about the topic of time and how it relates to different areas and facets of our lives.
