"Dox Why Worry", my horse, was keenly aware of time and he did not even have
a time piece. For years he led a trail ride. The morning ride usually
returned at 1pm. I noticed if we were running late he would speed up the
ride and if we were early he slowed it down. I started changing the return
departure time; Dox could make up over five minutes when I left late. The
amazing thing was that he could always return at 1pm.
He was also very keen about keeping track of meal time and he was very good
at reminding me that it was time. Is time that moment when perception begins
to become an event?

     So, the question is whether time actually exists or 
whether it is a necessity of the human sensorium and 
awareness. Could it be that all of what we seen as 
sequential processes actually exist together, that is 
simutaneously, although that word implies the existence of 
time. Since the speed of light is finite and since our 
awareness of events is dependant on our detection of them 
that awareness is also limited by this limit. Perhaps the 
laws of thermodyamics are illusory.
