That is...correct! Time IS elapsing all around you. So, in a way, it is always around you.

Here's another (Again, I thought this up):

Almost everyone wants to be with me.
They love to be with me.
Some strive to escape me.
They hate being with me.
Many try to never leave me.
My brother will try to snatch you from me.
Eventually, he will.
When he does, you many never be with me again.
What am I?

No, it's not some sort of super-hooker.

And another one of my own:

They say I am only in your thoughts.
No one can truly contemplate me.
They say I don't exsist.
But when I do, I could destroy everything that exsists.

This could be very hard or very easy.

It was a very minor cut, that closed up in the 30 seconds it was under water.

No... nothing like that.

ZT - Is your second one an idea?

Is the cut fully healed? Because if the water was very silty the cut could be covered up.

Zephyr-Is the first one in your second post God?

Oh, and here's another one, though you may have heard it before, but it is interesting:

What is greater than God,
And worse than the Devil,
Rich people need it,
Poor people have it,
And if you'll eat it you'll die.

EDIT: Wait a sec, both of Zephyr's ones in his last post could be God.

30 seconds in the water is long enough to attract piranhas. The cut is gone because the finger is too. And maybe the hand.

[Edit: The answer to Ben's is nothing.]

—Alorael, who has nothing good for ZT's new ones. Youth is an extreme stretch for the first and he can't think of anything better than the aforementioned idea for the second.

But the correct answer to both of them is not god.
And the answer to the second one is obviously an idea if it says it only exsists in your thoughts.

I though the answers to Ben's could have been pride.

Perhaps his finger was never cut. Instead he actually cut the potato.

Well not literally. But you can figuratively.

Since I seem unable to solve any I'll provide one.

I am always hungry,
I must always be fed,
The finger I lick
Will soon turn red.

Ok, Alorael is right, the finger was bitten off.

As for Ben's the answer is nothing.

Yeah, it is, since you're in need of confirmation. Alo said that too a few posts back.

Hey, that's a good answer.

Anyway, try this one that I made up.

They're huge but they're tiny,
They're bright but they're dim,
You can't see them when the streetlights are off,
But if you'd turn them off you'd see them better.

Correct.
(Easy) And what was "brother" referring to?

Here's an easy one:

How can be possible to build a square house (4 walls), all walls facing south? ;)

Death.
