Stand on the platform before a train. An expensive ticket in hand, and the promise of being at your destination. In ten. Measly seconds.

You're here. It's time to get on the train. You clutch your ticket, something you had to save up for over many pay checks. But a ten second commute to anywhere is well worth the price of admission. You walk in, take your seat and buckle yourself in. Now it's just wait with the other passengers on this train. And 10 seconds will be over before you can think. You think.

Ten seconds is longer than you think.
