I like the fact that I have good old-fashioned British teeth with a big gap.
The notion that science does not concern itself with first causes - that it leaves the field to theology or metaphysics, and confines itself to mere effects - this notion has no support in the plain facts. If it could, science would explain the origin of life on earth at once - and there is every reason to believe that it will do so on some not too remote tomorrow. To argue that gaps in knowledge which will confront the seeker must be filled, not by patient inquiry, but by intuition or revelation, is simply to give ignorance a gratuitous and preposterous dignity.
I want people of faith on my side, not just voting on election day but by hoisting me up by getting down on your knees and lifting me up in prayer.

We can stand in the gap together and speak about issues we believe in and we will be victorious.

Time perception is very much about how you sequence your activities, how many activities you layer overtop of others, and the types of gaps, if any, you leave in between activities.
There's the space that you soar into, the space that you sometimes break through to, and hang in. A sort of gasp or gap.
