How Long Is Long?
We say we have had a long day. Yet each day is only 24 hours.
We say it is a long road home, yet it is the same distance that we took to get there.
We say it took a long time. How long is a long time? 5 min? An hour? Two years?
We say I let my hair grow long again. How long is that? Two inches? Shoulder length? Down to your backside?
We say there was a long lineup at the tolls. How long is that? A kilometre? 17 cars? 4 tractor trailers?
You get the picture - it is going to be a long long time before I figure this one out. Now how long is long long..hmmm!
