Healing

We tend to go through this life in a hurry, barely slowing down for anything. Meals are even a rush, as we are always trying to keep up with the daily tasks and expectations for ourselves, so the days just zoom by. Before we know it, another year has gone by. Another holiday is around the corner. We have aged and still haven’t reached many of our goals or experienced many of the things we had hoped to by this time in our lives.

Time is not an object.

Time is not something we can earn back.

Time is steadily passing us by, as we hurry and hurry to get nowhere fast.

As we watch our children grow, or see the skin on our faces change with time, we look back and think about all the things we had hoped to do with our lives. We think about the experiences we have had, and the time we hope that we have left. Maybe this changes things a bit, seeing how time isn’t slowing down, but our bodies really would like us to.

Time doesn’t wait for us to decide to be more patient.

Time does not tell us we better hurry up and accomplish our goals.

Time does not stop and go backwards so we can fix past mistakes.

There is an unknown amount of time for each of us. We are not given a choice to stay or go, at any age. We must make the best of this time that we have. It is up to us how we spend our time, in this life. We can spend it rushing through or we can spend it moving a bit slower and enjoying it a bit more. You choose.

Time is what you make it.

Time is on you side or it isn’t.

Time is passing by…

How will you choose to spend the rest of it?
