Here’s a thought for a Friday afternoon.
Time is a funny thing. It is constant, it doesn’t change, it carries on regardless of what is happening in our lives. Why do we try so hard to do the impossible and either fast forward it or slow it down.
Time slips through our fingers when we want to hold onto it. Sometimes it is because we are so busy that there is not enough time in the day but also in happier times when we are blessed with wonderful people around us or a relaxing holiday. At other times we wish time away. Wishing for the end of the week, so that we can once again enjoy the weekend, which inevitably ends too soon.
For a long while I was wishing time away. I spent years trying to just get through to a happier or more peaceful time. I didn’t even realise for a long while that I was doing it and then when I did I didn’t know how to stop it. Now I am in that happier more peaceful time, I want to hold onto it. But the day goes by faster than I remember it.
