  5. Duration is that thing that you want to end, yet it dreads you when it happens. Duration is how many breaths you take, how long it takes for you to walk, to run, to smile, to love.

  6. the time for which any thing occurs is duration..when we are in a hurry the same duration might appear long..n when we are at ease or being lazy the same duration might appear very short. and duration subjects also to time bound of an event. which is importan

  8. Duration. The amount of time I have to live. The amount of time I have in a day. The amount of time I have to finish a project. The amount of time I have to write about one word.

  9. His eyes glinted in the fading sunset. her mouth kissed the fine skin on his neck, sending shivers down his spine. Her lips were a velvet caress. He looked out over the sea and knew he loved her.

  10. I hate the word duration. To place a limit on things. A restraint. Duration to me signifies conditions. Rules as to how long something can take place. How long something can exist. The word duration is too restricting. It limits us from possibilities. It limits us from our possibilities.

  11. There is drought and rain and winter leaves. We pass by this life once. And yet, it takes more than a lifetime to explain how much you love someone.

    This place is temporary. Love is forever.

  13. this a period of time that you have to wait for something, but its not just waiting it is what you actually have to go through as well. It is a passage of time that will lead to eventually a final goal. It is the time taken to complete something, to arrive to a final destination.

  14. Something about the term, duration, really seems to get people really worried about things. There’s a lot of stress considering what needs to get where, when, and how. It’s this that drives people to care less about their peers, so that they may accomplish more, with little thought.

  15. Duration is the total time it takes one to endure anything including life, love, and find meaning in this world. The duration of one’s life is finishing one’s work and learning that we have a higher calling.

  18. For the duration of the test she sat at her desk, twiddling her thumbs, watching the clock. Willing it to speed up. She wanted to get back to him. He would be waking up soon, and be hungry. God knows, she thought. A century without eating, I’d be starving too!

  19. It takes a long time for me to get through my Studio Production class. It’s a four hour class pertaining to everything I learned at my high school TV station three years ago. It’s going to take everything I have not to fall asleep today.

  20. A span of time . Being a patient person helps in instances where you have to wait, no matter what it is for. Wether the duration long or short, I do not mind the wait if the outcome is what I want!

  21. the duration of life…is it too long, or is it too short? the obvious response is too short…not enough time to do everything that you want to do, not enough to gain the success that you wish to have, not enough time to realize all of your dreams. but is that really the way it is?

  22. It has been years. I think. Definitely years. Years and years and years and the clock still ticks. It ticks and it ticks and it ticks. But then one day it won’t. I hope it won’t today. I hope it never ticks again. I hope it all stops…

  23. I have no idea how much longer I can Durante this. Sometimes life is hell. But as a beautiful spring mist overpowers my senses..Bam I’ve lost myself to living once again. I was so close. But for now I’ll just hold back these tears

  24. Duration

    It has been a long time since I have seen a stage. Yet alone danced on one. But today I shall conquer my fear of dancing again.

    Ballet, for me it is one of those things you can do, and pick right back up after say four or five years. Ballet used to bring me joy, and it was an amazing feeling just taking steps toward the stage.

    “Ella, what are you doing here?” my dance instructor yells from the back of the theater. Even without turning to see her, I know she is there, I’d have recognized her voice anywhere.

    “I am here to dance again. It has been a long time, but I couldn’t endure not dancing ever again. I need ballet. It is the one thing that can make a bad day better for me.”

    It has been a long duration of time, but now I would not have to endure the pain and suffering from not doing what I loved. The time for waiting was over, when I finally got to the stage, and stepped on.

  26. i hate waiting at the dmv, there is so many awful people and weird smells. It takes so long to get to the even worse person behind the counter, who has done nothing with their day, life, except dealing with all these people.

  30. For the duration of our life, can we promise to devote it to none other than God and those around us. Let us not think of ourselves but of what would be best for everyone.

  31. It’s har to write anything when the duration is short. My head does not want to remember all the words to use. I would like to learn how to com up with good stories in a short time.

  32. It never really lasts that long, she mused as she closed the laptop, got off her knees, slipped on her skirts and rearranged her habit. With one critical look at the mirror, she adjusted her composure and set her face into the firm grimace of Sister Mary Catherine – one look wiping off every trace of Candy Can Mary.

  33. I have the will. I have the power. I have the tenacity. I am whatever I am destined to be. However, my destiny has a lot to do with my duration. My duration is how far I am willing to stretch myself to make myself successful. I think one of the most interesting things I’ve learned about myself is that I’m on a constant journey to be better than myself.

  34. Over the duration of the period provided for writing on the word ‘duration’ I will be considering what the appropriate content for such a topic will be. Duration is the time elapsed but is also a representative sample derived from the word itself. A definition will not suffice.

  35. the duration of this message is too less. I need more duration to complete my work. The things have to be enoyed in their duration.

  36. what is the duration of an agony? including one over trivial matters. the agony comes on and off, leaving me feeling that everything’s on my head. there’s no specific duration of the agony; its end comes when i decide to end it.

  37. It’s a strange word. Sort of French in the beginning. Rationing during the second great war, somewhere in Europe. The longing for manufactured stuff was a long duration, horribly insatiable.

  38. For the duration of his visit, Sam never bought any food. When Jon got back to his dorm, Sam would be sitting on his cot, eating from a pizza box, and Jon would recall the messages on the free-food email list that popped up twenty minutes ago while he was surfing the web during bio: free pizza, lobby 10; WHERE HAS THE PIZZA GONE, one minute later.

    Sam was supposed to be shadowing Jon, but he snored away when Jon got up for his 9:30 class. “What did you do today,” Jon asked when he got back and Sam showed him a list of seminars he’d supposedly attended, looking at their descriptions as he responded.

  39. The time it took to correct myself
    the left foot right a sliver of a seed
    the right arm held up a fraction of breath higher
    it was enough to call it wrong
    the photo blurred beyond belief
    my body trailing fog across frame
