The sun sets on another day…
Sunset was again shrouded in smoke and clouds. As the sun set it became lighter and lighter until it was no longer day, but instead night.
Perception of time is unique to us. Talk to your dog about it. If you leave the house for 30 seconds they will act as though you have been gone a lifetime, because to them time is different. Ask a child, time is fluid, they have no concept of time until you start putting it into them. Then the time becomes precious, more more, and wanting every minute becomes imperative. We are built on time, but we don’t cherish it as we should.
It has been proven we see a very small spectrum of light, and hear a very small spectrum of sound, but do we see time in the right way? Do we have a concept of time that works? Better yet, are we spending out time understanding our time?
It is said that when people cannot understand time they are no longer sane. People with ADHD do not perceive time in the same way, and many people just have no concept of time at all. Perhaps the essence of time is elusive as well as definable. Our clocks give us measure, but we give credence to such, and in the process, perhaps we miss what we should be looking at to begin with, time.
I have been in a kiss that lasts forever, and in a class that was never-ending. I have done things that seemed to last seconds, and that seemed to last longer only to find them switched. I have found that the best times in my life I was not looking at time, but instead into myself.
Who cares huh?
Well maybe if we just get lost for a while in what we like to do, we might just enjoy our time a little more. Maybe, just maybe, time is not as important as you are. Maybe time is something we need to give a little more of to others. Just consider it, in the end the choice is yours.
So as the sun sets on another day, take a moment and find your time. Enjoy the time you can, and find ways of working in more time for you. Maybe stop worrying as much about time, and worry more about living. Perhaps that will make your days better. Find the time to be you, no matter what,
Sleep sweet, love life, and don’t run out…
