When
Deep discussions amongst friends, creates visuals
Ongoing and not limited to prescribed times and timeframes
Whenever
When you're with people of all ages
All of the time
Specifically when you are a child at home (from family, guardians)
From the time you are at nursery school to a young adult
Then you still are educated through various mediums of culture all throughout life
In continum
From the cradle to the grace but mostly on weekdays sept-june in your 20s
When it feels right - but requires time and commitment
Childhood
...You least expect it
Inside and outside the institution in the barrier between the two
Over time - requires duration
Now
Right before exams
Adulthood
All the fucking time since I was born!
Late night
Early morning
not after lunch
Forever
From birth til death
Early mornings over breakfast
Feeling fresh and awake
Time - always/ongoing
When emotions are tested
With set backs!
With disappointments
Anytime
Relaxed
Together
Focused
On a work placement
