MJA'S NEW 21st CENTURY DICTIONARY:

"SPACE. What unites all things, and make all one, TOE.."

"Time. A man made measuring tool of no absolute certainty.
The same as weight, distance, judgement, or perception.
Time is measured in seconds, minutes, months, years, etc.."

The truth of everything is less than one inch,
it is only equal and the lion is one.
One is free when the door is opened,
education has the key.
