According to Buddha

The appearance of “time” is little more than a trick of memory. You can easily discern this for yourself: simply figure out what it is you consider “the past” and “the future.” You will discover that it is nothing but thoughts–nothing but memories, nothing but expectations, nothing but mental commentary. It’s “all in your head,” so to speak. There’s really no such thing as time. There is really only Now–an eternally present Present with no beginning and no ending. Everything is completely new, distinct, and original every instant, with no real “change” or “motion” at all.

maybe the sun’s light will be dim
and it won’t matter anyhow.
i won’t be blinded by the light.
i’m old enough to face the dawn.
