Time! How funny and strange time is.
Sometimes there's too much of it and you don't know what to do with it.
Sometimes there's just not enough and try as you might, you face a losing battle to steal as much of it as you can.
The thing about time is that it may heal wounds; it may torture you with the past. It may reveal all the battles you've been in through your face, body or behavior.
It can also throw memories back in your face and blindside you with the strongest of emotions. Emotions you thought time had helped you forget. It could be a simple word, smell, or a glimpse. Anything can trigger that flashback. You are once again that helpless person stuck in time. The pain doesn't seem to end and the future never seems to materialize.
What do you do with all the time that has already passed?
How do you prevent your mind and heart from going all nostalgic?
Your time on earth is limited. So much of it gets wasted. It all may add to life lessons, but mostly, it's wasted!
So much of it is also spent being ungrateful and on reflecting on the past. Quite like I'm doing now. But is it still time wasted if you talk about the value of time? The worth of time? The cost of time?
I will never get this moment back. I can never recreate that earlier moment in time.
Is there anything worse than living a life of regrets or denial?
Even the strongest can crumble with this burden.
All I can do is reflect, reminisce, and rebuild.
