Time

Time

Time is the most valuable commodity
Time is worth more than wealth
Time lost cannot be regained

We say we “spend time” or “buy time” like it is a currency
We measure time so we can monitor how we use it
We don’t like wasting time

Stop

Think about how you use your time
Are you on a virtual treadmill?
Do you choose how to use most of your time?

Do you have time for the most important things?
Or rather do you make time for them?

We speak about “making time” though we can’t produce time
We can only prioritize what we spend time on
Our priority list is infinite
We will never be able to “make time” for everything
So we must choose wisely

Time is the most valuable gift
Give it without expecting anything back
So you can find true happiness

Sometimes we receive this most valuable gift and fail to realize it
Have you been through a life changing event?
Has unemployment yanked you off the virtual treadmill?

Amidst the emotions realize that you may have received “time”
Don’t rush back to the status quo
Take time to choose how you will use your time
For it may be some time before you receive this gift again

Time is elusive
We speak of time “flying away”
We don’t know where “it went”

We don’t know how much time we have
We usually crave more time as time passes

I once spent time with an old friend on “borrowed time”
As his eyes welled up with tears I asked what he was feeling
He wished he had more time to do just two things that were most important to him

So “take your time” to make sure that you “use your time” on what matters most
