Time

Seconds add up to minutes that add up to hours that grow into days, then weeks, followed by months turning into years. There's nothing we can do to stop the forward motion of time and we can't go back in time like Marty McFly of "Back to the Future" and change anything. We only get one chance at life.
Time, time who's got the time. Sometimes I feel like the white rabbit in Walt Disney's Alice in Wonderland, running around yelling "I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date, no time to say good-bye, hello, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late."

The band Alabama sings "i'm in a hurry to get things done, (oh,) i rush & rush until life's no fun, all i really gotta do is live & die, but, i'm in a hurry & don't know why."

Ever felt like that? That feeling of always running behind, and in a hurry to rush to the next thing, not enjoying what it is that you're doing now. Why is it that we have such great difficulty s-l-o-w-i-n-g down?

Time is a precious commodity. Everyone has the same 24 hours in a day, but it's what we do with our time that determines what's important to us.

To be rather than to do.....
