In real estate, they say there are something like 192 steps to go from contract to close. There are phrases like time is of the essence to deliver certain funds. In life, much is about time. To use it more efficiently. To make the most of it.
In just the past few days it was illustrated how short and uncertain life is from the deaths of 13 yr old Boy Scouts from a tornado in Iowa to Tim Russert, newscaster, dying at age 58.
Like the Cinderella story, you feel sometimes like
DON'T LET YOUR HORSE CARRIAGE TURN INTO A PUMPKIN BEFORE ITS TIME.
It may be close to midnight, you never know. You're running to get all the things done in your life, yet you know the sand is ebbing out of the hourglass.
I've heard of living in the present. I've learned to do that one better and live in the moment. Do you do that? Make each contact with all in your life a pleasant one the best you can. There is NO time for negativity. There is NO time for meaness. Time is ALWAYS slipping away and time along with energy from your health is one of life's most precious resources. DON'T WASTE IT. You learn that as you get older. Be nice to EVERYONE.
Sometimes I think our life experiences the "cramming effect," like studying for a test. When we know it is limited we go in overdrive to work at putting something into it. Plan your year. Sprinkle vacations in there. Tell those you love, that you love them. Be the best YOU each day. Touch lives.
Above all, DO IT NOW!! Send that joke to someone TODAY not later in the week. Hug them TODAY, not when the situation is more appropriate. Support them TODAY not sometime in the future. If you live in the moment, you will be a complete person and never have any regrets.
Hurry up now, you must live in the moment and get on with it. You may lose a glass slipper along the way in your run. But your carriage won't turn into a pumpkin before you're where you need to be.
