Time

Time? Time, time, time……tick tock,  tick tock, the clock doesn’t stop, doesn’t go any slower for you, doesn’t go any faster. Most of the time it won’t be friendly, you can’t ask it for favors, you can’t sit and talk, it won’t wait. It’s evenly unjust to everyone nobody gets special treatment. Time is one of those things we all wish there was a stop for. There are times where we wish it were slower, like those mornings you are running late and you still have a million things to do before you walk out of the house and then the subway seems to know you needed to get on that train that you just missed because all of a sudden there are delays. You wish that time would slow down, and then we you have those endless nights where you have to finish that 15 page paper and have 12 hours to accomplish it. How you wish that time and you were on better terms because only then will you have time to finish and sleep, it’s one or the other but never both. It’s not always like this though, you have those times where you are awaiting that moment, that day, that year. Oh my gosh… I can’t wait to turn 21 or the weekend needs to hurry up, or my favorite “10 more minutes of class, 5 more minutes of class, 3 more minutes, 2 more minutes, 1 minute, 1/2 a minute……she is keeping us over 1 minute” We always want two different extremes, if we don’t want time to go faster then we want it to go slower, my oh my why can’t we make up our minds. In the end though we all know that time won’t , sure there are times where those 5 minutes seem endless and then there are times where those 5 minutes are crucial. You can’t buy it, there are no refunds, no exchanges, no rain checks; it’s a final sale so be careful the way you use it because life goes on around you and there’s no going back. As cliche as it sounds make every possible second count, go out, explore, enjoy, learn because in the end it’s a one shot deal and whatever you chose to do with it is permanent. Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock; it’s a never ending ticking and tocking but what you do between those ticks or those tocks can be something you might never have the chance to do again.
