Stolen Time

Do you need time?

There is time. It’s how you use time that matters. Too many adults look back and consider their life to have been a waste of time, at least partly.

Too many un-lived dreams, too much time given to putting food on the table. Too much time stolen by school, work, and life pressures.

Which leads me to conclude that in the West we do need time that is our own given back to us. Our lives are proscribed from the cradle to the grave. You will go to school, you will work, you will pay your taxes, and in later life you will become a burden on the economy you paid for.

We need to live a life that is our own. Where we make choices. Some people do that, obviously, they smash the mould, but not everyone is born with a talent or a great idea. Most of us trudge through life, literally without the time to smell the flowers.

Yes we need time even though we have time, but someone else owns it.

We also need to understand the importance of happiness and make it our top priority.

It’s that lack of understanding coupled with social pressures and rules, that is stealing the time we do have but can’t use to create our best lives.

We also need a mindset shift to more soul-centred thinking and heart centred-living. Living our truth and meeting our needs. Which is not selfish. One means of control is to tell a person it’s selfish to want to live your best life.

There’s a lot the West needs to move away from and back to nature. Then we will have the time we have because it will be spent more naturally.

Younger generations, take note, question the status quo, but don’t take your freedom by making other workers pay for it while you sit at home. Far too many members of older generations have done that in the past. live a productive life doing what you love. Contribute by doing what makes you happy.

Best love
