Does speed really matter???

Men have always liked speed.From ancient Romans and Egyptians who held chariot race to current day formula ONE teams.Speed is something the man kind has always worked on.With evolving man even speed has evolved.We want every thing to be fast for us from over internet to over car to our laundry getting cleaned.But the question arises why has man been so addicted to speed.Why Why Why.......
When we ponder upon this issue we realize that speed is related to 'Time'.Time is something that we always want but then time is also something that can never be bought but speed can be bought and with speed we can save 'Time'.Time has become a key entity in our modern day life style and to save it we need speed and that's why our thirst for faster cars,faster banks,faster life never ends..And the main reason for this unquenchable thirst is 'Fear of Death'.Because its over death that's marks the end of our time.'Time' that was given to us by God to achieve whatever we can.And thats why we use speed.But then an another thought arises that this circle of speed can never end because of human Greed to achieve more and more.So where do we stand after all this..From Chariots to F1,From handwash to Washing Machine.

The same place where we have stood before.Because Change is constant which means that when world around you is getting faster and you are also getting faster then the speed of the world around you and your speed cancel out each other and your standing in the same page as the Romans with chariots.Which means,though you are fast when compared to the past but are you faster than the present???
