"I remember looking forward to a certain thing
or event that is going to happen, and trying
to visualize its actually happening and not
understanding "time" one bit. (Frustrating).
Frustrating, because, at times, one can almost
grab it. But then you realize it's too slippery,
and just too complicated, and so you lose your
foothold, totally back to nowhere. (Frustrating).
Still believing that a certain sort of understanding
is somehow possible, if approached delicately
enough, from just the right angle."
