Time the soothsayer of life

Life and time are the world's best teachers. Life teaches us the value of time and time teaches us the value of life.


Time is life. It is time that teaches you what life is. The times you should have spent for important things when you were slogging beyond your capacity takes over your health and then it is gone forever. There are times you could have spent in learning more constructive things, but did not when you needed to know, is felt when that time is lost forever. There are times when you should have spent time giving importance to a  relationship that counts in life, the consequences of which you lose it, get hurt and struggle to bear the loss of it. You sometimes give time to all except the ones who genuinely need it and end up losing what is most important to you. Longing for the lost  time, love, care, affection, is as futile as searching for the sun after sunset.  Time lost is life lost. Life is made up of time.

It takes a lifetime to earn love, affection, respect, honesty, passion and in split seconds all can be lost. Start pursuing what you are passionate about, when you find little time for it.  What you do is important, because you are exchanging your life for it. Do it with earnest and you will be rewarded, little efforts taken daily pays off, in the course of time. How often you rush through things without giving it time that you  miss the beauty and wonder of a moment.  Time never returns. 

The most remarkable aspect of time and life is its preciousness. Its value no one can fathom and its power is inestimable, the potential of which you can never calculate. A fraction of a second can make a difference between life and death; the depth of a relationship,  and for something  to slip away to nothingness. As you go through the journey of life, you realize that if there is anything in this world that can never come back it is time, words uttered and life. Once time and life  crosses into the threshold of the past, it can never return to the present and this is the basic truth of life itself. 

The passing of time escapes no one in this universe. Getting the most of each day, living life as it comes, helps you understand the importance of every moment in life.  Time  and life moves at its own pace,  without waiting for anyone nor allowing to be commanded, analysed or criticized.  Though all are conscious of the passing time and life, its importance, it is rarely valued till it is lost forever. Some say time is money. It is more precious than money because lost money can be made up later, but a moment lost  is lost forever.  Every breath and every second is to be valued. Nobody can escape the hold of time.  Your life and identity through time can never be answered, only time will show the truth. What was yesterday is not today. What is today, may not be tomorrow. Yesterday is gone, today is and tomorrow is yet to come. It exists always. 

There is a time and season for everything in life. One cannot grow anything in a moment  nor can a baby become an adult in a minute. Everything in life has its own time. Time is a medicine and healer they say,  time is also a wise counselor of life. The passage of time allows growth and this growth gives lessons and experiences. Some always complain that there is no time to do anything. Time and life is fleeting. Only time can show you the fruits of your efforts and the truth of your life or anything connected to your life. In fact life and time goes on side by side and you can never predict time or your life. 

Your life starts from the time you are born, unaware of the world- happy, tension free and then as time passes you realize what life is, adapt to learn new things,   realize the value of people who love and care, the preciousness of life;  you make mistakes and try to learn from them.  As time passes, you realize the real challenges of life and that life doesn't remain the same always. With the threat of the core of life, you realize the real value of time and life; you find new meaning in life and to count the little blessings time brings you. The beauty of life is you hope for the best but  it is the unexpected that happen and time gives you important lessons of life that always take you unawares. 

Time gives you gifts of precious memories, that you love to think of as flashback scenes of life. Life is a beautiful journey, even if it is adversities visiting you often. “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present, ” as this quote says, you can never predict your future, but you can make use of the present. The beauty of life is to live life as it comes, enjoy every moment because life and moments that has passed can never come back
