mind change

I've come to a number of realizations.

While time is given relevance by association with something, it exists regardless of such association. It, according to our perception (as a result of an increasingly rational world), is a progressive phenomenon structured by numbers.

Thus, time should be represented without the existence of event or circumstance. Thus, it should be structured. Thus, it should have numerical attributes.

What remains is producing a representation of time that may stand competently alone, yet convey a desire for association (in this case, abstract emotion).
