The design of our calendars — the way we arrange our days, weeks, and months — is a reflection of how we aspire to live our lives

We live with these realities because they make the rest of our lives feel manageable. But time did not have to be arranged that way. We have  imagined  time, at least in Western countries, as subservient to commerce, and attempted to export or forcibly impose that understanding worldwide.
