A Matter of Time

Life charges us for things we do daily using the largest denomination in the known world--Time. We, as human beings, have the audacity to waste Time, lose track of Time and forget that Time exists as though it is not in any way, shape or form valuable to us.

We spend Time doing things that are meaningless with people who are insignificant in the grand scheme of things or are not worth our Time. And for what? What reason do we have to justify this misappropriation of funds that we have at our disposal without even having to earn them? Is it possible that in our grossly underused brains we truly believe that we can make up Time?

The truth is that once Time is lost, it can never be found. You cannot buy Time or substitute material possessions for the lack of Time spent with friends and loved ones. Time will not heal all the wounds created by your absences. Time does go on without you and even if you attempt to save Time you are wasting it because it cannot be bought, sold, or saved in an account for future use.

Time is precious and fleeting and worth more than we all may think. Time should be used wisely and never wasted or taken for granted. Be mindful of how you spend your Time here on Earth because, in spite of your naïve and grandiose beliefs, you won't live to see the end of Time.
