Relation between time and humans

With passing time, if you are not learning anything new, then you are not living, you are just ticking like a timer.

If you keep looking at her, she keeps sinking.
If you keep thinking about her, she keeps shrinking.
If you ignore her, she goes away quickly jumping.
When you don’t have her, she laughs at you winking.
Because she is time.

Creativity, the more you use it, the more you have it.
Food and fuel, the more you use it, the less you have it.
Interest, you use it or not, the interest on money always keep increasing.
She, whether you use it or not, she always keeps decreasing.
Because she is time.

You don’t know how much you have her,
Then why you smell faults instead of a flower!

You don’t know when she will be gone,
Still why you waste her by sticking to a phone!

You never know when she is right or wrong,
Then why don’t you listen to a melodious song!

You never know when she is fast or slow,
Then why still you are not learning to grow!

You will never get ahead of her,
Still why you keep running for her!

She is not the same for everyone,
Why you still compare yourself with what others have done!

She is not your road to walk on,
She is not your companion to walk with,
She is not your luggage to carry on your back,
She is not your mobile phone to live with,
She is not your money to exchange with,
She is not your talent to showcase,
She is not your face to make up,
She is not your loss that can be covered,
She is your profit that can be saved for future,
She is not at all yours, but she is involved in everything you do and even when you do nothing.

You are a small part of time. Make it the best part. And it is always the best time to do what you want to do, if you think so. In the entire book, there is always a quote which strikes first whenever we hear that book’s name, be that quote

The time remaining is not for covering the time which is already lost, it is for decorating moments which we create in the present. It can be done only by looking into your present actions.

Time is referred as ‘her’ just to give it a human effect.
Thanks to Maya Angelou, for her beautiful quote, which gave me the idea for this relativity.

Thanks for reading. Make the most of time, as time never turns back. Have a beautiful week ahead.

I don’t know for some reason, the comments which I make on other blogs are not showing up. They are going to the spam folder. Hope it gets resolved soon. Thanks for the support.

      Yes, very true Mani. . Time is the concept which always makes our simple tasks complex. May be because we tie ourselves with the time and so this all happens.

      Thanks for reading. Have a beautiful day πŸ™‚

    Well designed true fact !
    Thanks for the much needed inspiration … πŸ™‚

    Tick tock on the clock , with every passing time I am spending my savings of a day containing 24 hrs !
    By the next day again 24 hrs will be credited to spend on !! And at the end of the day my savings again will be zero ! But what’s important is whether I spend it on a good deal or not !!

      Thank you so much Puja. . And yes, well said. I like the concept, savings and credited again. It depends on how efficiently we use the time we are given.

      Thanks for reading. Have a great day. πŸ™‚

    Brilliant post, Jackie. Loved the quote you wrote at the beginning. Every word in this post is very powerful and directly hit the theory of importance of time. Enjoyed your imaginations about the time in this poem.

    When we focus all our attention in the moment we realize that time is an illusion and that we have an infinite time available for us to live.

      Yes, Walter sir. True! When we live in present, our life gets magnified and we feel happy as ever and we can make the most of it. Only if we keep ourselves attached to past and future, we get confused with concept of time.

      Thanks for reading. Have a great time. πŸ™‚
