time stopped

have you ever wondered what it would be like to "stop time" ?? this pic is a 3 minute egg timer turned on it's side so the sands of time are stilled. Time has stopped. I tipped the egg timer on it's side to allow time to temporarily pause, thus taking a "time out" or getting the symbolic sense of being "out of time"
i then righted the timer into it's upright position and time resumed again. The sands would slowly flow thru the hourglass again. I like thinking about time as a reflection on aging gracefully with dignity.
