Time


Soak yourself in the experiences of life -live passionately, give completely and experience every moment truthfully and you will never want to go back and revisit your past. Saturate yourself in the present moment,every single one of them, and you will have no regrets in life.

Time is precious, but not precious like a jewel that we can hold it and safeguard. Time can seem to stop, fly and in the end it does kill , but in essence time is flowing, you cannot measure it and you cannot freeze or capture it. We have the choice to just flow with it, believing we have abundant time to do all that we want in life, or to miserly hold on tight to it.

It is fine to be  possessive about your time, decluttering the  life of all the unnecessary activities that clog the smooth flow of time. When you start believing that you  have abundant time, limitless, you  accomplish more - slowing down, in a contradictory way gets way more done  than rushing.
Like everything else in life, the concept of time is again correlated to our attitude. Simplifying our lives, by setting a priority list goes a long way in getting away from being overwhelmed by our busy schedule. Chaffing the "must dos"( and really that again needs to be modified time and again) from the should dos brings back some semblance of  control in our lives.

In modern times, most of our time is occupied in just surviving, in our effort to make what we assume to be a living. The time that we do have for ourselves is either spent frivolously in either inconsequential activities and interactions or trying to maintain relations that don't enhance our lives in any way. We work so that we have enough, but ultimately it we who define how much is enough for us.

Purge the unnecessary, chop the edges and define what really makes you happy. Adding depth and meaning to all that we do, makes us realize that we have all the time in the world, as long as we live in the present completely and truthfully,so set out and define "enough" for you , so you control your life, both in terms of social interactions and monetary gains. Don't let your careers and social obligations hijack your time.

Making sense of it all

The last couple of months have been surreal for most of us - and nightmare to many others. People have lost loved ones, lost their liveliho...
