What is an "instant" death anyway? How long is an instant? Is it one second? Ten? The pain of those seconds must have been awful as her heart burst and her lungs collapsed and there was no air and no blood to her brain and only raw panic. What the hell is instant?

You are in love for an instant, or your senses are rocked for an instant. That person then disappears and is lost to you forever.

We live in a day when the adversary stresses on every hand the philosophy of instant gratification.
