Time my Time

However we try, we cant hold it back, we cant stop it.

The hands of the clock just keeps moving sweeping through every revolution
You can't stop it or freeze it
You can't manage it, you can only manage the activities within it.
Its never enough.
It goes on with seconds rolling into minutes, minutes into hours, hours into days, days into weeks, weeks into months, months into years and years into a lifetime.
What you do with it drives your life and shapes your future
Everyone has the same time resource, the rich, the poor, the young, the old, the learned, the illiterate.

No one gets more, nobody gets less.
What is done within it is what makes a difference of a lifetime
There is a time for everything

A time to sow and a time to reap

A time to be sad and a time for joy

A time to give and a time to receive

Time gives an opportunity to for a better future

There is time to love

There is time to write and a time to refrain from writing

Life is Long term

Life is long term in the sense that what we do today goes a long way affecting how our future would be. A lot of people just think short term just because the do not see the end in view. They do things just because of the present gain and they do not think of how today's decision can affect tomorrow's events.
Even if the decision you make does not pay in the short term, its like an investment for the future. A very good example is the relationships we heep. A lot of people can't keep relationships for long because they only think of what they can gain presently and once that is achieved, they move on to look out for another one and most times looking for how to be the only to gain, that in a way being a parasite.
The gain is supposed to be in both ways and not one-sided.
Even if it is not paying now learn to delay gratification.
Always think long term, because it pays before you know it.
Selah.

Where is my strength?

Where is my strength?
Where is my passion?
How I long to return
To what I call convenient
But I feel the move to press on
There is a brighter sight
If only I can wait patiently
Enduring all the pain and shame
I'll savour the endless gains
Like the lush green plains
