The event that came to be known as The Pulse began at 3:03 p.m., eastern standard time, on the afternoon of October 1.

What mattered was the effect.

 
Stephen King

A time to rend, a time to sew
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of peace... I swear it's not too late.

Time is the most precious gift in our possession, for it is the most irrevocable. This is what makes it so disturbing to look back upon the time which we have lost. Time lost is time when we have not lived a full human life, time unenriched by experience, creative endeavor, enjoyment, and suffering. Time lost is time not filled, time left empty.

 
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
 

A key ingredient in authentic Christianity is time. Not leftover time, not throwaway time, but quality time. Time for contemplation, meditation and reflection. Unhurried, uninterrupted time.
