In our modern world, so much of our lives revolve around attaching to schedules and deadlines. We have to be aware of the opening hours of stores, what time a movie is playing at the cinema theater, or whether it's time to eat dinner or to go to bed.

No known historical records occur that tell us how much of a reaction time had on the earliest people. We can carefully infer that when early people began to have a consciousness of time, their daily lives improve a more structured pattern. They apparently began dividing the days and nights,so that they could point out to a time-related when they keep in touch with one another. For example, they could now arrange their meetings more exact times,such as " Just after sunset " or " at high noon ".

With the expanded efficiency of clocks, business owners could measure specifically the hours their employees worked and thus conclude how much they would be paid. On-the-job expertise became the new focus of interest. Systems for improving efficiency, such as the assembly line, arose as a result of this interest.

Perhaps, it is really not necessary to observe every second of every minutes of everyday all the time. Even though we can now measure time down to the nonesecond, do we need to? Perhaps in some of our aims, but definitely not in all cases.

Time is to slow for those who wait, too swift for, those who fear, to long fo those who grieve, to short for, those who rejoice but for those, who love, time is eternity.
