An Essay On Maximizing Time and Experiential Living || And In That Moment, I Swear We Were Infinite “Time has a wonderful way of showing us what really matters.” I had this quote engraved on the back of my wood watch. Zebrawood is native to West Africa, one of its defining features being its very pronounced growth rings.
