Gravity is considered a basic or fundamental forces of this universe. Like fire to a cave man, gravity is not fully understood. Just as cavemen understood how to create fire,that it produces heat and how to utilize fire for their benefit and survival, too, we know only this much about gravity. There are models that can predict the apparent gravity of massive objects, but ultimately gravity does not always act as the models predict.

Poets speak of time as flowing like a river winding past trees, over waterfalls, merging with the ocean. Maybe, after all, this may not be so wrong, partly anyway. I find myself, at rare times lying awake late in the night, or early in the morning alone with my thoughts. And just what is it that occupies my sleepless mind when Morpheus abandons me in the dark? Time. Not that red faced tormentor flashing its red eyes at me, reminding me of the hour of the evening that I lay there sleepless.

Morpheus, your cruel abandonment is the wellspring of many a thoughts.
