Time

April 11th 2007 Posted by Bob in Words

For several days I had been stewing about all the things I wanted to do, but didn’t have time for. Last night I woke up at 3 am and a thought came to me – think about the time you have, not the time you don’t have.

So it occurred to me:

  • I have time to visit sweet Betty
  • I have time for a great dinner and a swim
  • I have time to vacation in New York
  • I have time to meditate every day
  • I have time to hug my beautiful wife everyday
  • I have time to rub kitty cat bellies every day
  • I have time to go out with friends any night
  • I have time to call and talk to my Mom
  • I have time for yoga and walks

I guess I have all the time I need.

I am reminded of a story in the Gospel of Thomas. Someone asks Jesus where heaven is, and he replies “heaven is spread out upon the earth, but men see it not.”
