“Time keeps on slipping, slipping… into the future”
~ Fly Like an Eagle, Steve Miller Band
The one thing that we can give but never get back in return, unless it’s shared, is time.
Time is infinite, yet we are only gifted one second at a time. I personally believe that life goes on long after we’re done walking this planet, but here on earth we are given just a small portion. We can’t make it up, we can’t re-create it, we can only move through it… one moment at a time.
So our treasures are not found just in riches or in family; in relationships or in material possessions. We show what we value in where we place our time. Because let’s face it, that hour that we spend in a deep conversation, hours spent on a project not just to make something better, but also to do something for someone or with someone; those moments show what matter to us.
Time.
And time again proves where our hearts reside.
Because you can’t say you value something if you never have time for it. I know I have told many peeps that I care about them, but then fail to reach out and even say hello on a semi-consistent basis.
What time is it?
Time to show what really matters.

Very true! I do not need any more things, but would love to have more time with those VIPs in my life.
