Time…

 

Time that is lost can never be gotten back, and with the passing (dying of that time) seemingly memories which could have been made, precious times that could've been spent, hugs and kisses that were never felt are gone forever.  With each passing day, month, year, life seems to be moving at a faster pace than ever before, even in mid-blink, something special is happening that we're not a part of.

    To put everything you are on hold in the hopes that in the near future time will be kind to you, will somehow reward you for all the sacrifices you've endured is a hope which bears no fruit. Just the thought that in those moments that just maybe that the time given was a divine way of rectifying past mistakes without the undue influence of your heart's passion in proximity. Maybe this was time's way of whispering to you that there is another path to travel and the path chosen was a path chosen in haste.

 Time's greatest secret if you didn't already know is this: live life as if tomorrow never existed, as if the past never happened and enjoy the moment of who you are, enjoy the gift of what God wants you to be. The passion of life comes not from the love of your mate, of material things acquired, but from the passion crying in your soul to be set free to let you attain your highest heights. When that passion is set free everything else around it becomes enflamed, infected with the energy that you've been storing for years.

 Passion, defined loosely as an emotion that is deeply stirring, ungovernable.  Find that passion, harness its energy for good and make it work for you and your fellow man.  I love that word. Passion. It strikes a flame in me, and I believe that my singular voice is unique. I believe that my words and thoughts can capture the hearts and minds of others who are in search of something beyond the mundane everyday existence. Find your passion and feed its hunger. Passion as I define it would be your God given gift to make a difference, and use this gift for free if needed. Everyone has a gift, talent. Find yours and use it. 7-24-05
