Time is funny. And it’s not fair. I don’t care what anyone says, argue if you must, but there’s nothing constant about it. It is, in fact, erratic at best. Relative? (yes, thank you Einstein). Absolute? (no, sorry Newton).
Time is always changing. It’s never the same one day to the next. Oh, sure, there are 24 hours in a day, 86,000 seconds in a day—but, no one second is ever the same. Sort of like a snowflake … case in point, when you’re doing something you love, time flies by like it has an agenda. Like it has to get somewhere. Like it’s only teasing you, making you think it’s on your side. BUT. Do something you loathe (like that seventh mile on the treadmill this morning) and those seconds drag on and on as if they are going to exist forever.
Yes, time is as fickle as a prom queen. She loves you, she loves you not, she loves you, she loves you not … and so on.
Which is exactly why I try and remind myself …
“Don’t spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.” ~ Coco Chanel
Just something to think about as you go about your day : ) Your welcome.

DISCLAIMER: I’m a writer and an editor. And I try my best to make sure every post is articulate and free from errors. However, being that I edit my own work—and it’s next to impossible to properly edit your own work—I admit, occasionally there may be an error or two I miss. But doing so doesn’t make me an idiot so don’t be mean. Just smile, pat yourself on the back for finding an error and be glad you’re not the only one who makes mistakes sometimes … xoxox
