Oh man, don't mess with my head. :twisted:

This is the type of thing I used to stress about in early childhood.
I was obsessed with knowing how time started, and I was even afraid of clocks.

^I was never smart enough to be this philosophical.

I actually believe time is infinite. There is no beginning or end.

That was the problem for me.
I couldn't conceptualise of time not having a beginning.
"No end" wasn't as confusing to me as "no beginning".

Now I realise time doesn't even exist, so I feel a lot better.



The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells
