Time......................

Time  - 

so precious......
so limited........
so wasted with meaningless tasks....

This thought process has been created through a number of recent conversations - when we reach a stage that we realise that we have forgotten to do the things that mean the most; as our lives have run out of time and we have just  "got caught up in life"

Friends recently spoke about taking a walk on the beach in the evening - something that they used to do on a regular basis and for what ever reasons had just stopped..... for years they had stopped and it was by chance that they took stock of this and tried to think what was so important in their lives that these moments had stopped.

These moments.......... hmmmmm - the moments where silence is so very acceptable - just being there and enjoying the moment is all that is needed.

These moments ..... that can fill your heart to the brim and even overflow with total joy and happiness without even being aware of this impact.

These moments .... of sharing time - the one thing that this material chasing world can not buy.... the one thing that can give us more peace and security than all the materialistic things in this world.

Time ...so precious... so meaningful... so peace giving

So really what is so important that we can not allow ourselves this precious atom of time?

How would we use it.............possibly a chance to rediscover nature?    

To hear the leaves from the trees rustle in the wind - 
to notice how the light shines through the small gaps between the branches and the leaves - to hear the crack of leaves and twigs underneath your feet as you walk - 
the distant sound of water - 
the birds calling out to each other letting each other know that someone is in their territory. 

Sitting on a stone....feeling the energy of nature around you.... feeling your own stresses just melting away

...just allowing yourself to have this time.



And what stops us sharing this precious time with the ones that we love the most?

Take a moment to remember a walk, a chat, a watching of a film, tendering the garden together; or whatever that precious time was for you, with the people that mean the most to you................................

Remember what it felt like when your friend or family member came to you when you needed them most.

What it felt like when somebody else gave you their time.....................

I hope this allows you to take a moment and evaluate your life - and hopefully you will not have forgotten, you will still afford yourself time and you will still cherish every precious moment that you share...........................

...............................................................................................................................................
 

Take time out and give the most precious gift that you possess....YOU & YOUR TIME.
