Time is a Precious Thing


I did not need to watch this video again I heard something the first time I watched it that really stuck in my head. It went something like, we offer kids time something that seems to be in short supply of these days, I think the reason this stuck in my head so much was because this is what you hear a lot from your friends, family, yourself, everybody. Everybody saying they don't have enough time to clean there house, or to go watch there kids games, or to take time for themselves. Well everybody has time, and everybody has the same amount of time in each day, not one person gets more time in one day than another, everybody gets 1440 minutes in one day. Its how you spend your time in those minutes, that result into the days in each year, and each year into decades.

So why does time feel like it is in such short supply of these days. Maybe its because you are a very busy business man/woman or a very busy college student, whatever it may be you insist that your to busy to go have dinner with your parents or go have a day with your son/daughter. This is when I believe were in short supply of time, when your to busy thinking about how busy you are to realize that you've got time, time that your wasting right now thinking about it. You can always make time for something, always. Time is in short supply when you've lost your chance to do something, or when you've lost your chance because your time has come, or when you've been given a short time to live, that is when your in short supply of time.

I understand how it is to be busy, but yet I always make time to go out and enjoy myself and do things that need to be done. If I have a pile of homework and it is due tomorrow but my friends call me up and want to go out and do something, I will go out with my friends, just because I know I can do my homework when I get home, even if it means staying up all night and getting up extra early to get it done, and least I can say I went out and enjoyed myself instead of feeling bad for myself because I am to busy to have a life.

I hope after reading this you will start to make time for your friends, family, and yourself. Start to enjoy the little things in life, and not be down because your so busy, be happy that you are busy. =))
