 I have been doing a lot of reflecting recently, as I’m sure a lot of us have due to resolutions and such. I have done that type of thinking as well, but this is a little different. A friend of mine ended an e-mail to me with the quote about time being like a river and not being able to touch the same water twice. To me this saying is 100% true, and it made me start to think about how I have been spending my time over the past few years. Have I been using my time wisely? Where have I been? What have I been doing? How have my habits changed? How can I improve my time management? These are all questions we need to think about occasionally.
I believe that our health is our greatest asset, but time is our most important form of currency. It is more precious than gold, diamonds and platinum! The reason is because, it cannot be replaced. There are only 24 hours in a day, 7 days in a week, and 52 weeks in a year, and that is all we have. What we do with it is our problem. You cannot relive yesterday or even an hour ago for that matter. When you get sick, your body heals itself. Healthy living, along with some TLC and regular check-ups can keep you healthy, but it can’t slow down the hands of time or bring back yesterday. Exercising and eating healthy will not allow you to be at both the 2 PM board meeting and the 2:15 PM 2nd grade spring concert. But it can help you deal with the fact you can’t be in two places at once.
Living a healthy lifestyle allows you to deal with your physical and time limitations a little better than others who do not take their health more seriously. Taking the time to exercise and working out your frustrations that way instead of reaching for some form of comfort food is an important form time and weight management. We have to find better ways to cope with the fact that time does not allow us to do everything we want, when we want. We need to find ways to replace comfort food with comfort activities. I used to go out and eat or drink to relax and unwind with friends. Now I walk the dogs, grab my JumpSnap or take a jog to unwind for the night. I take time to relax and think about things away from the kids, the TV and the dogs. We have to spend our time wisely, but do not forget to spend some time on your self! Taking the time to exercise and relax/meditate allows you to have a better understanding of yourself. It gives you time to reflect. Take that time to think about some of the questions asked earlier.
Use your time wisely. Remember, you never get to see the same minute twice…
