Time is something that interests me a whole lot - past and present, and how the past appears as people change.
Time plays a role in almost every decision. And some decisions define your attitude about time.
The particular aspect of time that I'm interested in is the arrow of time: the fact that the past is different from the future. We remember the past but we don't remember the future. There are irreversible processes. There are things that happen, like you turn an egg into an omelet, but you can't turn an omelet into an egg.
