I know what you mean as you get older. I am amazed that Tuesday (my Monday)comes so quickly and then how does it get to be Friday so quickly? What I need to work on is when things happen out of my control and just be in the moment. You made me think! .-= Cathy Cresser´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.cathycresser.com/personal-development/174/" rel="nofollow">My First Video with James</a> =-. Great post Darlene.

Thanks for sharing with us all. I have heard about trying to live life in 15 minute increments. It seems easier that way. I have tried it out a few times and it felt good. I was able to focus on the main thing that I needed to get done. When unexpected things come my way that get me "off plan", I tend to sit back and evaluate where they fit, and what they will do compared to what I had planned. Then decide what to do next. I rarely react to situations. Make it a great day! God Bless, -ed Hi Darlene,

So I suppose it really is important to take a look at how much you value your time. No wonder so many people are stressed these days, information and communications can be transferred so quickly. Maybe we're all in information overload and we expect things to happen quickly, so when it's taken away from us (like your car breaking down) we don't know what to do! Excellent insight!

It's amazing what can be accomplished when we do nothing. I use to be as Garrett described, not minding wasting my own time but when others wasted my time it was a very different story. In 2007 I was running at full throttle when I slipped on black ice and smashed my head on pavement. Time was taken away from me through black outs and seizures. Five minutes turned into five hours and 5 weeks and 5 months without my knowledge. Today I am living with normal time frames as anyone, praise God, but my perspective on time has definitely changed. I do what I can to the best of my ability every day and in every way. When someone interrupts me I know there is something I am to learn from them and I give them my full attention with a grateful heart. Thanks for the reminder that there is too much life to waste always doing. Sometimes its in doing nothing that we learn the most. <3 Kellie .-= Kellie Frazier´s last blog ..<a href="http://kelliefrazier.com/2010/03/12/do-you-know-your-purpose-try-this-short-exercise-to-see-if-you-know/" rel="nofollow">Do You Know Your Purpose?

I totally love having time to spend doing something that I love. I also love the feeling of having nothing to do but think. This morning I thought oh I have ages, why dont I meditate for 20 minutes so I sat there closed my eyes and do you know what happened....I fell asleep for 3 bloody hours, no meditation achieved LOL. I was so cross with myself, I dunno maybe I was tired. But I wanted to turn the clock back so much. Hehe. Great post!, Beth Hewitt Hi Darlene,

I have found myself in similar situations, as we all have, & I have learned to take some deep breaths & relax. I remind myself that there is a reason for this delay & I open my mind to receiving the message that it brings. Thanks for sharing.

Sometimes i feel like i have a big clock hanging round my neck constantly reminding me how little time we have. One guy i know always carries a cd and book in his briefcase for those times where he is left "stranded". He said to his child "If you ever ask me to produce a book and/or cd from my briefcase and its not there i will give you $20". He has never had to pay up. I always have a book or my diary to fill in the gaps so as not to waste a second. Having said that its important to just be in the moment and enjoy it. Thanks Darlene, great post.
