Time

“Time is carving you…,let yourself be shaped according to your true nature.” – Master Po

This is it, you’ve only got one shot, and it’s already started” – Roger Waters


For tribal man space was the uncontrollable mystery. For technological man it is time that occupies the same role.  –  Marshall McLuhan


Time is the substance from which I am made. Time is a river which carries me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire. – Jorge Luis Borges


“Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid.”  – Frank Zappa


Everyday it seems like I wake up with a full day ahead of me. In fact, like many, I think I have more to do than hours in the day. Rarely do I wake up and approach the day as a precious gift.


I take the days for granted. Each day could be my last, but I live like there will be many more. I am more appreciative of experiences and people than I am of time, yet time holds them all.


I can easily recall times when I wished time would speed up, slow down or stop altogether. I like the image above – human lifes dropping through the hourglass.


The gravity of time is pulling as all toward the timeless.
