How far does one walk in a second?
... run in a second?
How many financial transactions last but only a second but it's effects are felt a lifetime?
What is a second?
A little more than one heart beat.
A sigh.
A thought.
A decision.
Being missed by a bullet in battle.
Being the woman of some man's dreams.
What defines a second in time?
Precision.
Exactness.
Quantity.
Not quality.
Rigorousness.
Veracity.
Thinking it through for that extra second. To be sure. Confident, is a very veracious quality.
A percise second is 'the truth.'
It is not vagueness.
It is not guesswork.
It is not approximation or falisy.
An extra second of time is putting a person in a different place and time than a lack of it.
An extra second of time is "The Truth."
Where it gets lost again is in highly impercise politics that lies, cheats and manipulates the perciseness of life.
