Astrophysics teaches us that traveling back in time is impossible, meaning we only have it now, so let us use time intelligently before it slips away. Time makes us all prisoners of the present, forever transitioning from our past to an unknown and mysterious future. Therefore, our social circle must understand the adoration, admiration, and appreciation we hold for them without question. We do not know how long we will get to ride this Big Blue marble through space, so let us live each day like it could be our last, as the last curtain call could be at any moment.
There is no time like the present to make such changes in your life, so as we creep into the New Year, more perfect timing does not exist. Although the majorly materialistic masses enjoy spending money to show their love for others, it does not compensate for the missing interpersonal time. The latest tech toys are great, but an intimate conversation over dinner, coffee, or something in between means much more than any gadget. It is essential that we demand patience, compassion, and understanding from ourselves when dealing with any person or predicament.
The average lifeline of a human flies faster than Halley’s comet through our solar system. While here, we should stop worrying about the insignificant issues that plague our lives, which truly do not matter. I understand your friend Janet said something to offend you, but do not take it out on Mini-Michael or little Lisa, who will only briefly be this age. Instead of trying to make significant memories once a year, make a lot of smaller memories, as they are more frequent and meaningfully memorable. When reconnecting to keep someone in your life, do not merely text them but call them. Texting is highly impersonal and more beneficial for quick conversations.
So, this New Year, let us focus on the idea of time for which we have entirely too little of and do better at controlling and not wasting it. When thinking about our life’s clock, it is essential to remember that we need to grip it tightly, use it wisely, and waste it rarely. We must take the time to teach our children love, understanding, and compassion through the sharing of time. It is imperative for us to make time to spend with family together to show that unity is better than dissension. Lastly, let us find time to connect with old friends who somehow silently slipped and escaped our new reach.
Live every moment, laugh every day, love without boundaries.
