Symbolic uses
Unlike most other methods of measuring time, the hourglass concretely represents the present as being between the past and the future, and this has made it an enduring symbol of time itself.
The hourglass, sometimes with the addition of metaphorical wings, is often depicted as a symbol that human existence is fleeting, and that the "sands of time" will run out for every human life. It was used thus on pirate flags, to strike fear into the hearts of the pirates' victims. In England, hourglasses were sometimes placed in coffins, and they have graced gravestones for centuries. The hourglass was also used in alchemy as a symbol for hour.
The former Metropolitan Borough of Greenwich in London used an hourglass on its coat of arms, symbolising Greenwich's role as the origin of GMT. The district's successor, the Royal Borough of Greenwich, uses two hourglasses on its coat of arms.

Many of us here tend to ask each other why, over and over in different ways.
Some of us believe we know why, or assume we do.
But I'm not sure if any of us has ever asked YOU.

What do you feel when you've just posted something trollish?
What do you feel in response to others' reactions?
Does it give you something that you wish to experience again?
And if you know, what lies deep underneath?
How does it affect your relationships with people?
Serious answer not expected, but would be greatly appreciated.
Has all that speech making and campaigning really been necessary? I am really sick of all the blarney the candidates are pitching and all the opinions of the media spin doctors. ... moreHas all that speech making and campaigning really been necessary? I am really sick of all the blarney the candidates are pitching and all the opinions of the media spin doctors. There was a time when the presidential campaign did not start until the summer before the election. That certainly was enough time for voters to make up their mind. I do believe God is watching this campaign and laughing at all the clowns making fools of themselves. I wonder what the rest of the world thinks of our election process.
Hillary and Donald please give America some peace and quiet. Go home and don't come out until Nov 8 less

If you make yourself do this exercise once in the morning and once before bed? Maybe 4 or 5 of this pose? You will get much relief if your back is feeling muscle aches that are unbearable or nerve pain.
You do it slowly. You do not force anything and you take your time to get to the full posture.
