People plan within a boundary of time, look on the past over a span of time, and set goals for the future that are to be met within a period of time. Time can facilitate goal accomplishment, and it can be an oppressive force in finishing tasks. It can make people nervous in one context and can relax those same people in another context. Life is run on a time schedule—in some instances the schedule is philosophical, and in other instances it is concrete. For example, one has six months to live or one has a whole lifetime. Is there any philosophical difference in these statements? Clocks, calendars, watches, seasons, holidays, birthdays, and so forth, all point to time—the unidirectional process of growth.
