| For those who matter the most |
Time, in its truest form is something which is rarely invested in subjects most important to us. Well, money and work, both go hand in hand and the reason why we work to earn money is never actually attributed to that reason. We rant that we work for our loved ones and for our needs but sadly, at the end of the day, the ones who are least rewarded are the same people!
Quoting Jesse from the 1995 movie, "Before Sunrise" -
"
So If you had two extra hours in a day, how would you spend it? Look at your life, Technology definitely gives you more time but you spend it by doing even more work. You have Washing Machines, Computers, Vehicles and other machines that do your work instantaneously and thus gives you more time, which instead of using for even more work, one must actually spend on themselves and their loved ones.
If i had 2 extra hours in a day, i would "waste" it all in the company of my family, love of my life and in the lap of mother nature- because they are the 3 most beautiful part of my life and actually everyone's life. I would fulfill all their wishes, keep my promises, make them feel loved, cared and most important of all, give them what they want the most from me - my time. I would take my family on a car ride to see the beauty of nature and teach them to appreciate it. I would just sit with them, let them talk, be there to listen, be there for them.
All this is a fiction, no one's giving you 2 extra hours because basically you don't need them. We all have those 2 extra hours, 120 extra minutes, just that we haven't realized its importance yet. By default, we have programmed our self to "invest" that extra time that we have in doing more work and earning more money instead of "wasting" it on our loved ones, the ones who really require our spare time, if not our already occupied time.
The sooner we figure this out, the better for us because work can wait, even money can wait...but time, you know right? Time and tide waits for none!
