Romeo And Juliet Essay Time

Humans and time work against each other in most aspects of life. Past can be a draining thing to continuously carry around and to have following you around like a shadow trying to haunt you. Being able to use the gift of time as wisely as you can; helps you transform your life into what you want. An attempt to change the future due to knowing and not liking the outcome. Time continues to move forward eventually ending everyone and everything in its path. Everyone wants more time even though “Time is what we want most but what we use worst”(William Penn).
