Time. I remember as a student in elementary school, staring at the clock. In my mind I was pleading for the minutes of Math class to MOVE FASTER! But time is immovable. Believe it or not.
You see, time just marches on, with or without our permission or desire. Time does not stand still, even if we want it to. Time waits for no one.
We can waste time, but we can’t horde time. We can spend our time being productive or relaxing, but we cannot put it in a pouch or a bank to be used later.
Our schedules are based on time, but time doesn’t schedule itself to us. One might think we were irrelevant to time, and to a degree we are. Everything works on a timetable, but we are seemingly the only ones concerned about tracking time.
Why is that? Why are we SO focused on time when we cannot control or alter it?
Time is an artist though. Just look around you.
Example: the animal kingdom.
Yep. It’s almost as if time is irrelevant. They go through their day hunt when they’re hungry, sleep when they’re tired, and don’t really seem to worry about much of anything.
SO TRUE! Yet, I still try to squeeze in as much as possible everyday…who needs sleep?
Sleep? MORE COFFEE!!!!!!
hmmmmmm I think people like to worry about time because they cant control it. if you worry about or complain about something you can control people just think you are an idiot because why not do something different.
We should be concerned about those things we can change, have a plan for those things we cannot change, and hopefully the smarts to know the difference. And then……I looked in the mirror and that whole hypothesis went down in laughter.
sounds good anyway
Yeah, sounds good, but putting into practice is a bit more of a challenge.
That is a very beautiful picture…. It is true, nature is the most inspiring artist….
You are so right…time is an artist.
Time is being an artist on my face, etching every life experience in every line. It’s a good thing that I’m happy most of the time.
Time is no respecter of any canvas, for it creates a masterpiece on each.
