The Longest Nanosecond
What can you do in that amount of time?
It is less than a blink of an eye.
It is the time it takes to fire the synapses (sic?) of your nervous system.
It is the heartbeat of a rodent.
It is a flash of lightning splitting a rainy night sky.
A few hundreths of a second.
It is what separated my 4th placed car from the 3rd placed car in today's radio control car rally race. I may not have taken outright victory, but being there to challenge for it, and nearly taking it, is a greater prize, knowing that it can be done again. Not a real victory, then but a psychological one that I can build upon.
We'll be there the next race.
