w-2day4

All life-forms must pass through the turnstile of time. For example all lives are controlled by their internal biological clocks* that are in turn synchronised with external events by time signals. Animals and plants can detect changing of seasons and respond accordingly.
(* In the human body such things as body temperature, sleeping and waking, hormone levels, excretion rate and mental ability are controlled by the biological clock.)
How living organisms keep time with their environment is often the key to life and death. For example: nocturnal creatures in deserts must cope with heat of the day. So it makes sense if they stay put during the day.
This preoccupation with time and how life forms manage their lives create a rhythm as natural as our heartbeats. (1) It in turn must correspond with the very cosmos.
Explanation: 1. There exists a certain symmetry which man would assume from his observation that everything on this earth occurs in cycles, as the orbital paths of the sun and the moon would mean day and the nights alternating one another. The sun in its turn also has its orbit around the Milky Way.
Tailpiece: Wouldn’t a may fly consider the lifespan of humans as interminable as we might look at a galactic year?
