Thank you Max! Since we can not control the length of our lives, it is helpful to control the length of our moments. Compare the passing of a minute when you are typing into your computer or rushing to work. Then take a full minute to be empty and still to watch the sun rise. Our mind will comprehend that minute of stillness as much longer than 60 seconds. Perhaps, slowing down time in this way, if done frequently enough, will lengthen the perception of our time here on earth thus leading to the satisfaction of a long life no matter what its true length.
