Ever seen the sand on the bottom of the ocean, on the ground, or in a river?

In order to understand geology, my professor once told me, that you have to stop thinking about time in terms of a clock. Or a calendar. Or a lifetime.

Thousands of lifetimes will allow you to comprehend why the Oxbow is put into that river over there.

Hundreds of thousands of lifetimes will allow you to start getting the concept of geologic time.

That's a quite interesting discussion.
