A Time For Now
a time to cheer, a time to cry,
a time to live, a time to die,
a time to sleep, a time to wake,
a time for real, a time for fake,
a time for truth, a time to lie,
a time to laugh, a time to sigh,
a time to stand, a time to fall,
a time for one, a time for all,
a time for love, a time for hate,
a time to run, a time to wait,
a time to stay, a time to flee,
a time for you, a time for me.

I was thinking about time today as I sat on a training course wishing the day away because I wasn't doing what I wanted to do. Don't get me wrong, the training course is very good, but it was 27 degree celcius today and I usually don't work on a Friday afternoon and I have a cold and I wanted to watch Moo do her gymnastics and...I could come up with a million more reasons.
I just didn't have the time to be sitting in a training course when I could have been doing so much more.
The ever allusive time. We wish for more of it or we hope it will go quickly, we're never happy with what we have and how we use it. Yet, I am a classic time waster. I never have enough of the stuff, but I'll happily sit here on my blog writing about it instead of doing the dishes, or checking homework. I then ask myself at the end of the day, "Where did the time go?"
What do you do with your time?
