All about Love, Life, Relationships

Time, some say, is the most important aspect of life, some say it is gold, some say it is invaluable… But for some, time is just the seconds, minutes, hours of their life spent on menial tasks, waiting to be shaved off so they can do other things. Some feel that they are tied to time, as if they were slaves, waiting for time to end…

For most, time is just the ticking of the clock, waiting for that certain tick to end agony, pain, defeat, loneliness or strike the beginning of joy, happiness, togetherness.

Time for some is lengthy, especially in times of hurting, yes, in these instances, time being cruel is an understatement. Time is at the same time short, for those who spend them in happiness, the day ends so fast; that you feel time was robbed off of you. The discontentment lingers in our hearts, why can’t we just shorten time or lengthen time, depending on our need for it. Not even the wisest of men have figured out on how to spend time the most efficient way.

Some die young and unsatisfied, worst; some die old and still unsatisfied. There is this thought in our heads, “There is just not enough time for everything.” Yes, there isn’t. That is the cruelty of life, but have you ever thought for one moment that we have wasted time, worst we have not only put it to waste but also ended up hurting people around us. Definitely, a lose-lose situation. Then how can we really make time matter, how can we make time work for us? I don’t know, it depends on your priorities, on what matters to you, who matters to you.

Time is such a big burden to carry; time spent on something means time spent off something. You give time to someone, it also means you are taking away time from someone. Time is something that can never be taken back; it is a one way street. To make it matter, we should spend it on something or someone that matters greatly to us. There are great sacrifices that we have to make, how important is time to us? What are the things we can trade it for?

Time will never wait for us, it will never stop ticking for us, it won’t care even if we are enduring pain or celebrating happiness… it is in our hands to make time matter, to make it matter to other people… Life is a mystery, some people only start living when they realize that they are running out of time, they are to be put away from this world permanently. Do we always have to wait for that signal to make our life more meaningful? And end up regretting how much time we have wasted? Lucky are we who still have a chance to wake up the next morning, embrace those who matter to us, what matters to us, for we will never know, it might be our last time…
