Time

So this came to mind late last night, well after the time I should have already been asleep.  It's something we all take for granted, and something we never seem to have enough of, or can make room for.

Before I go into my bubbles, what is time?: (Definition from Google)

Time:

noun

1.  the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole.

2.  a point of time as measured in hours and minutes past midnight or noon.

verb

1.  plan, schedule, or arrange when (something) should happen or be done.

2.  measure the time taken by (a process or activity, or a person doing it).

So OK now that we know what the actual definition is, though I'm pretty sure most knew what is was and most of us waste quite a bit of it, I know I have over my lifetime.

We like to use the word "time" as an excuse for too many things in our lives.  You know you do, because I do too.  But what we need to do is to make the "time" for those people and things that are really important.  I know I have been to blame for this, as many others have too.  "Oh I don't have "time" to work out in the morning".  Or...  "Where did the "time" go?"  I could go on with the excuses, because we have all made them.  What we have to remember is that we can make the time for what is important in our lives.  If we don't use that time wisely then we all will run out of it eventually.

Without "time" nothing would ever change.  We all know everything changes over time.  But it is up to us to make the most of the "time" that we do have and do whatever we can to make a difference in this world.  We all want to change something from our past, but we also know we can't.  BUT we all can do something with the time in front of us to make a change, make a difference.  And yep you guessed it... it all comes back to you. 

So how are you going to spend your time?  Is anything accomplished by complaining about everything that is wrong?  Or sitting around wasting time over a relationship that did not work out?  What about wishing that you felt better, but not doing anything to make you feel better.  If we (me included) spent a lil less time worrying about what we didn't do and focused more on what we can do, then those things that we thought we couldn't do would become things that we did do.

Time is a blessing that we all have, but that time we have is only guaranteed for right now, this moment.  So instead of worrying  about what time we don't have we need to focus on the time that we do.  Make the time in your life for the things that can make a difference, not only in your life but in the lives around you.  Remember to take some time for you.  For your health, both mental and physical.  The time you spend on you may increase the time you have to spend with those that you love.

So how much time can you spare in a day for your health?  It doesn't take that much time to make a difference.  I do a lil or a lot everyday with DDPYoga, and I know there was a time that I would make the excuse, I'm too busy.   In reality it is only a very small fraction of my day.

Remember we all get the same amount of "Time" everyday.  Live your life, the life that you are meant to live.  Don't rush it, everything will happen when it should as long as you are putting in the effort and the "time".

"Own Your Life"

"Always Believe"

and never...

"Never Give Up"
