Precious Wasted Time
October 5th, 2007
I have wasted today. I woke up and wet back to sleep. I dreamt of many things and then I woke up again. I watched my Hunny sleep and wasted some more time on the Internet. I sifted through memories long past and then shoved them back into my mind. I looked at the clock one minute and looked back the next only it wasn’t the next- each minute had gone by in a second and lasted an hour on my clock.
It has made me realize something. Have you ever read a book or watched a show with an immortal being in it and he looked down upon the human race piteously. Comparing our lives to that of a butterfly, that our years are much too short. Well, they aren’t. We merely waste all our time, twiddling away all our hours.
The only thing that can prolong it all is how we ‘waste’ our time. Are we doing something meaningful? Or are we jumping towards our death, wasting every precious second with a touch of the remote, pretending to be friends with those we aren’t, seeking solitude when we should be seeking the lonely, taking the pacifists path and conforming when we could actually ‘be’ something else. Be something we want to be, go where we want to go, do what we want to do. Don’t sit at home on the couch when we could go outside. Go. Be. See. Do.
Experience life. That is true immortality.
