Some Resources aren’t Renewable...

There's a myth that time is money.  In fact, time is more precious than money.  It's a nonrenewable resource.  Once you've spent it, and if you've spent it badly, it's gone forever.

I was told when I was younger by my parents many things.  Most of them were directed at how I should act in order to avoid being punished.  Those words of wisdom were lost on someone that while I could understand them, chooses to ignore them because "parents are old" and they "don't understand".  However, there was another group of lessons that were taught to me back then that were always prefaced with the phrase "When you get older".  Well, I do not like to think of myself as old, just more mature, and I now understand many of the things that my parents told me that were prefaced by "When you get older".

However, I also remember the one lesson that was taught to me and I always felt that there was a catch to it.  The lesson was "you can be whatever you want as long as you put your mind to it and work as hard as you can".  This is the one thing that has stayed constant that I am going to work hard and be what I want to be, and people can tell me I am crazy but I know I will succeed, because I am following the rules that work.

But, as I have worked through life, I have found that I have wasted the single most valuable resource that I have.  Time.  They are not making any more of it and each day the time I have gets shorter.  That means that I have to make sure that I get the full amount out of each and every day.  That I spend that time with the people that truly care.  That I work hard to make sure that friendships are built, stay strong, and that each day when I go to sleep I can truly say that there is nothing out there unfinished.

So today I end my blog with a question.  How do you "truly" feel you have used your "limited time" has it been something that you would look back on and say "yes, I have used my time wisely".  If not, what would you change (if you feel comfortable sharing that) and finally are there people out there that you have issues with that you have not closed?

Now is the time, everything happens for a reason, and that means this blog has crossed your path for a reason.  Time is of the essence and I wish you all the best may God Bless you and your family, friends and loved ones and give you the time… to say what needs to be said.
