Comments on: Natural Time vs Artificial Time http://www.slowplanet.com/blog/2009/09/10/natural-time-vs-artificial-time/ Just another WordPress weblog Thu, 17 May 2012 09:19:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Elise http://www.slowplanet.com/blog/2009/09/10/natural-time-vs-artificial-time/#comment-260 Elise Sat, 26 Jun 2010 13:11:08 +0000 http://www.slowplanet.com/blog/?p=262#comment-260 Before discovering that a 'slow movement' existed, I found myself following a deep curiosity to understand the concept of time. I began searching for different ways of telling time, naming my own internal clock and its rhythms and honestly didn’t know where the conviction to do these things came from. I read various books on 'time' but they failed to provide insight into what it was that intrigued me about the use of time, although I couldn't put was that was into words. In hindsight, it’s more than ironic that all of this searching occurred alongside a surprising new passion for organic gardening, amongst other things! Waverly, thank you for this post, and for your book 'Slow Time', which I eagerly await to read! It appears just the reading I've been looking for.
