Times a changin

The inconsistency of how time seems to flow is often credited to have inspired Einsteins grand theory of relativity...i dont know how credible that is, but i do know this...time seems to drag when we are already burdened and seems to flow when we are having fun...
so,
is Time but a state of the mind?
is it something that we lose track of when we are otherwise occupied by what we consider "nice" and consider it only when we have nothing to truly relieve us of our boredom/frustration?
does time only become important when all else we do is less important in our view than the "neutral" time?

Not a care in the world

isn't the whole world but a rat race, day in and day out, arent you just another cog in the wheel?
no..no..no...dont get me wrong...these are not the leading lyrics to another raving rap song.
its some of those random thoughts your mind tries to rage about the minute your alarm clock goes off on the side table near your bed.
You dont remember setting it carefully the previous night, you dont remember the important appointments you will miss, all you want is somebody to shut that dam*#!%^ thing off so that you can go off to sleep again.
you pull the covers up around your head, you try stuffing your head under the pillow, you do turn the snooze alarm off a couple of times, until you ultimately give in to the futility of rebelling against the passing of time
you come to your senses, you turn of that irritating alarm clock, hear some cheery fellow on the radio greet you (he probably recorded that last night for all you know) and go on to face the world yet another day...

ohh! how you wish you could stay on in bed without a care in the world.

what a shame you have to
jet, set, gotta go!
