"Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees Time can break your heart, have you begging please, begging please" ....so sang Eric Clapton in his touching song, "Tears in Heaven", written after the tragic passing away of his child.  Time.  A simple word we use so often in life. Everyday utterances: "where is the time", "what is the time?", "how much time will you take?".  Time becomes a banal entity in the daily grind of life, hardly ever getting the attention it deserves.  And yet sometimes, events happen that knock us out of our senses. And make us feel as if time has come to a stand still.  Its almost like we humans lead a life built on expectations. Tomorrow will come, I will have food to eat. A job to go to where I will be loved and appreciated. Family and loved ones to be with.  A continuum of expectations that assumes life will stretch from today to tomorrow into infinity, the way we "expect" it to be!...
