Is that second worth anything? To analyze, take a second to arouse curiosity about the title and content of the article. As for normal, it is... of no value. Because it is too short to solve a certain task in many tasks per day, for a total of 86,400 seconds. However, if you want to know who understands the value of a second best, ask the athletes.
At the 33rd SEA Games taking place in Thailand, on the green track, last weekend, two Vietnamese fishermen, Vo Thi My Tien and Tran Van Nguyen Quoc, finished second in the women's 400m medley and men's 200m freestyle events when they reached the finish line 1.09 seconds and 0.04 seconds behind their opponents, respectively. The numbers are so small that they are normally difficult to distinguish, but the electronic board is unforgiving. 1 second is the boundary of glory. It changes the color of medals, changes the way people are remembered. It's so cruel that it makes every second feel heavy.
In everyday life, a second passes quickly or slows down due to feeling and circumstances - slow as when looking at each countdown number of a red light, or as fast as the last minutes in the exam room. 1 second may not be significant, but in other cases, it can carry the weight of fate.
1 second of delay when driving can be an accident. 1 decisive second in the emergency room can save a life. A second of silence in an argument can avoid a breakup. Time is not fast, not slow. The way people put themselves in the new era is different.
For sports, every narrowing hundred second is the result of discipline, of continuous efforts, of habits, of doing the right thing a long time ago. Life is the same, just no electronic board announces immediate results. You often don't see the consequences of subjective seconds - until you have to say value, or the value of a alert second - often just summarize it over a long period of time.
From 1 second of My Tien, Nguyen Quoc and many others, it can be seen that in decisive moments, 1 second is never small. In 86,400 seconds a day, most of them pass by gently, but there can be a few seconds that are enough to break the steering wheel for a whole day, even a lifetime.
