Oscillation

 Q -   What speeds up as it slows down ?   
 A -   An oscillating object.  


For several years not just i, but family and visitors have noticed that objects such as cups, bottles and pans all wobble when placed down on our kitchen surface. This action speeds up until the object is no longer moving. Another fact that jumps out at me is an incident when a electric toothbrush started to wobble back and forth as i sat at the other end of the room.

Oscillation reminds me of how our minds swing from one view point to another before finally resting at a fixed judgement. I believe this process speeds up and becomes most frantic before the halt. Hence the speed increases during the ending.
