Staying up late once again. I enjoy the night hours. That doesn't help me sleep when I'd RATHER be awake during the night.
I "waste" a lot of time doing a lot of nothing. I often have nothing to show for my time. Lately I'm spending more time conversing with people - so that's not really a waste, is it? I'm spending more time cooking and cleaning than I've done in years - that's not really a waste, either. But still the laundry is piled high, and I really don't have anything to show for that time spent. But that's OK.
I have stitching to do. I've started 3 bookmarks, and I still haven't finished my sister's project. Now I want to start making seat cushions, too. But that last one is more practical. I'd like to have comfortable places for people to sit. I have a couch but my dining room chairs - well, only monks could appreciate those.
Instead, I write this. Not being in school means that I am not writing. I'm not creating. I miss school; I miss writing papers; I miss research.
I'm going to bed soon - or at least, I'm going to try.
Why are you people reading this?? Don't you have anything better to do with YOUR time??? :-)
Spending Time.
Wasting Time.
Time is Flying.
Lost Time.
Gained Time.
Make More Time.
All of these phrases are silly, really. Time is a human perception. It's just the present - this moment - that makes a difference. I don't mean that one can only live for the moment - that's very selfish. But really, once it's in the past there's no time for regret. So what to do? Make sure you don't waste time repeating mistakes. So spend time contemplating where you went wrong and you'll save time in the future.
