IDEK but all I can think of is:
HOW DO YOU MEASURE, MEASURE A YEAR
IN DAYLIGHT, IN SUNSETS, IN MIDNIGHTS, IN CUPS OF COFFEE;
IN INCHES, IN MILES, IN LAUGHTER, IN STRIFE;
IN FIVE HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED MINUTES
HOW DO YOU MEASURE A YEAR IN THE LIFE

ALSO IT'S ONE OF THOSE THEORETICAL QUESTIONS THAT IS PURPOSEFULLY LEFT OPEN FOR THE READER'S OWN INTERPRETATION.
YOU PRETTY MUCH JUST GAVE THEM THE TL;DR VERSION, THEREBY CHEATING THEM OF THE SATISFACTION AND FULFILMENT OF THINKING IT OUT THEMSELVES. SHAME ON YOU.
