If you’re anything like me, you sometimes think you have more time to do things than you really do. You prioritize your to-do list and get done what seems most important at the time. You figure other things can simply wait.
I do that too often with friends and family. I sometimes feel like I not only need the time to talk but also need something to say. After all, who wants or has time to shoot the breeze over the weather for half an hour? People are busy, right? They’ve got better things to do. So I don’t call when I should and don’t always write when I need to.
These days Pink Floyd’s “Time” plays way more often than I expected. You wake up one day and think where the hell has the time gone? All those things you put off for so long suddenly come into focus, and you feel a sense of urgency to do something about the lost time. Sometimes you get lucky and old friends and family are still intact.
Sometimes they’re gone forever.
Get your priorities straight. Take time to live, and enjoy life while you can.
