      As 2014 winds to a close, I share thoughts about Interstellar, which I saw last week. For those of you who have seen it, you know that it presents a number of complexities and speculations about space and time and the meaning of existence.  Many of these are worth a blog, really, but on December 31st, I focus on this:  time is more complicated than we can imagine.  We simply do not know how it works.  Though we live in it, though we die in it, we do not really know it.  But we're forever in it.
     As this year ends and a new one begins, the mystery continues.  We live, we die, we live again.
     And time, the riddle of present and ground of future, remains.
