What is time?; Time is not what we see on a clock.__ Time is life itself.
I used to think time was hours, minutes, seconds.. Now I understand time is breath. Time is the space between birth and death where we get to choose, love, work fail and try again..... Time is invisible. Everything happens inside time.
We live in a busy world. Everyone is busy. The phone is busy the road is busy the mind is busy. We wake up with alarms we rush to work we answer messages while eating we sleep late because there is still one thing to finish. We are busy from Monday to Sunday.. In all this busy-ness time is quietly slipping away.
Before I thought I would always have time. I thought I had time to learn that skill time to start that business time to forgive, time to rest.. Life taught me that time is not guaranteed. Time does not pause because we are tired.... Time does not wait because we are not ready._ Time keeps moving.
That is why time is valuable. You can lose money. Make it back. You can lose a job. Get another.. Once time is gone time is gone forever. One minute lost is lost.
So how do we value time in this world?
We value time by not wasting time on things that don't matter..... We value time by giving time to people and things that truly count.... A minute spent laughing with your family is more valuable than an hour arguing online.... An hour spent learning something is more valuable than three hours gossiping...
We also value time by resting. Rest is not wasting time. Rest is using time to heal so you can do more.
In this world the richest person is not the one, with more money but the one who uses his time well.
