Clocks ticking!


"An inch of time is an inch of gold, but you cant buy that inch of time with an inch of gold" - so goes a Chinese proverb. Yes, time is money they say - which is true ofcourse!

Time is a thing that most of us take for granted. When things are all good and everythings in place, we never value this time. We are relaxed and dont care much. But when time changes - we get worried - all worked up and complain 'how we are short of time'.
We are all going to die - stop wasting time - I know its too harsh a line, but we have to understand this well, in time - time is precious.





The theory of relativity - when we are with our loved ones, time isnt enough. But when we are on a hot burner - we wonder when the time would be up. Holds true in any age and time.
Time is no doubt free but at the same time its priceless! Dont waste it. Even if we believe that everything comes to us at the right time - but we need to use our time properly. Make your time count.

When we say time is precious, its also important 'with whom we spend it'. Spend it with people who are worthy enough. Young people are carefree. They dont worry about time as they think they have lots on hand. But ask a sick person - he would pay you anything to buy time and live on......

Time has a way to show us what and who really matters. Its one of our best teachers in life. It teaches us the value of life.
Dont ruin your time by spending it on anger, worries, regrets and grudges. Its a waste - to be unhappy!
We would love to see time standing still - if we could. But that wont happen in this universe atleast. So dont live in delusions. Running short of time is going to happen eventually!
Time wont wait for us - never.

Its rightly said - Three things you cannot recover in life are - Word after its said, Moment after its missed and Time after its gone. You just cant afford to lose time.

Do all that you want to - today - now is the right time! You never know whats going to happen a moment later. Respect your own time - treat it well - it will surely repay you handsomely. Merely spending time is for ordinary people - if you want to stand out - 'make use' of your time.

Give time to your loved ones - its the greatest gift you can offer because its a part of your life you are giving which cant be taken back and which will remain with them always. Capture the time into your memories and feed on them when your heart feels hungry.
Good things take time - right - but try to make them happen - as, lost time will never come back. Time will make you tough and tough times will fade away with your efforts to fight back.

I would like to quote Sophia Bedford, while wrapping up this blog in time -
"Be mindful of how you approach time. Watching the clock isnt the same as watching the sunrise".

Diary 2024

  And 2024 ends..... What a roller coaster ride!  Every year passes by and the new year comes afore, leaving you with something and making you leave something.  It would be quite odd if time doesn't indoctrinate our minds. This year taught me so much, like the previous one and the prior ones too! I have learnt valuable lessons thanks to 2024. The year was challenging, demanding yet gratifying.  What I grasped this year would be exemplar for rest of my life!  The fear of losing your close ones, leaves you petrified. While the close ones are battling, struggling with all their mights, you feel helpless even when you have honest intentions of support. Mental support, yes that can be given in abundance, there's no ceiling to it. But the one you intend to support is going through so much that sometimes just being there, showing up is also helpful.  Sleepless nights, nightmares haunted me for days. But then when you see them valiantly striving and vanquishing the...

Moira : Bound to happen! Chapter - 1.

Image
She was sitting on the bench under the huge tree. Its extensive branches covered few more benches around. The park was a hangout place for teenagers. It was a playground for children and a perfect site for the exercise enthusiasts. People jogged, wearing headphones, determined to shed those extra kilos and be fitter, sticking to their new year resolutions, was a familiar sight here.  Yuga wasn't feeling the vibe today. She had left home as usual, early in the morning, in her tracks and tee to run a few miles, but after three rounds she just sat down on the bench. She saw an old lady taking rounds, walking slowly, but with vigour. The tree was shedding it's aged golden leaves. One such tanned foliole fell beside Yuga on the bench. She picked it up and let it descend on the ground. She switched off the songs playing on her phone. With air pods in her ears, she sat inert on the bench. She closed her eyes and could hear the birds chirping. "They are so happy even at the break ...

What's your plan?

 "You've to score good grades at school!" "You've to do your Olympiads!" "You need to have a co-curricular activity or some sports activity!" "You should be able to dance or sing or play a musical instrument!" Oh my my! So much pressure on these little one's learning to adapt and traverse the lanes and by lanes of this complicated world. "But its a rat race! He/she needs to figure it out sooner. Studies, career, universities, the stress builds up as they advance into their grades (classes), isn't it?" Yes, true. It's a tough task for the coming generations. Population is ever increasing. Even though the colleges and courses are increasing in numbers but we have no say on the quality of education they impart. Also the leading universities and colleges are always the first priority, obviously. So the newbies are looked down upon. Also the reservations hinder the paths of many. Well, so what score is a good enough score...
