Summary
Despite popular belief, we never run out of time for as long as we live, because we ourselves are the time that we presumably 'have'. In a critique of the excessive demands and constraints that distort and obstruct our lifetime, Jochen Gimmel's essays on time theory probe possibilities to take possession of our time, to rethink time as joyful abundance, a lived practice of happiness rather than a life wasted in relentless pursuit.
