There was a time
when there was no time
Everything stood still
in the eyes of God
But he needed a goal
so he created time
Making us mortals
subjected to time
And now here we are
watching the clock
and the inevitable
passage of time
Living as minutes pass

So true Walker. I find that far too often I worry about time passing, rather than what I do within those moments. Thank you for this gentle reminder.  

Best wishes,

Every second is a precious gift, yes, and more so for myself than ever before in my life. This is a wonderful reminder of that!

walker---This is so good.  God needed a goal, so created time...quite ponderous.
