Welcome to Conversation With Katherine Conceptual Time vs Real Time

I am a lion on the plains of an African grassland.  I am happily lounging with my pride and I take a look at my paw and I say OMG it is 8:00 and it is time to eat.  I gather my pride and I roar it is time to hunt.  Now my pride is not hungry but after all it is time to eat.  I check my stomach and I am not hungry but my paw says it is TIME.  So off we go a hunting because TIME told us to eat.

Now this is a tongue in cheek statement.  Lions don't have time on their paws and hunting is done when they start feeling hungry.  Time is not something that is important to the lion.
