Time!

How do you describe the difference between living and existing? I asked a few of my coworkers and family this question and got some pretty different answers. For one thing, we are all "living" in the sense of breathing and pumping blood through our bodies, but you need to look below the surface and look into yourself and really ask yourself.... Am I really living?

I asked a male co-worker this question and he immediately said that he was just EXISTING!... Without a doubt, he just quickly knew his answer.  Surprised I being inquisitive, asked him why he felt that way and did he know the difference. He said if he was LIVING he would do the things that he wanted to do the things that would truly make him happy...

I think a lot of times we conform to the day to day life we just accept the mediocrity as it is and wake up and play the same tune in our heads. We have decided as people not to go against the grind not to question existence and purpose. We have accepted that this is our life and this is the best it will get and that is not right. Just imagine, close your eyes and imagine the life of your dreams whatever that may encompass. Imagine having all your heart desires, imagine your dreams, imagine for one second what would you do if you didn't have the 9 to 5. What would your purpose be?

I tend to get lost in thought of the what is then maybe when I get older Ideas. The thought of when I retire I will do this and not that. But what happens if your ticket is punched today. What happens if your life ends right now? You won't have the chance to say these words anymore "If I only had Time"... Time is the one thing that is gone the seconds a minute runs out. We were not born with endless amounts of time we were not born with expiration dates like spoiled milk. We are NOT and I repeat are NOT guaranteed anything in life. We are NOT guaranteed happiness, we are not given fortunes and  we do not guarantee time.

The time is here and relevant and time is the only matter that is not repeated. We don't have time machines we can't go back and relive moments. We can't go back repeat a day that is past. Our years don't go back they go ahead. So when you are looking at the Clock to see what time it is or to see that minute pass, I hope that you use your time wisely. It's precious it is the only pot of Gold that we are all born with. The only matter that some have more than others.

The thought that I am trying to obtain is to not live just to live. Not existing just to breathe, Not functioning just to be relevant. The thought I wanted to leave you with is think about your Passions, let's think about the if I had time to do this and maybe when I get a chance I will do that. Let's sit and breath and realize that you truly only have one life to live. It is about TIME that we start truly entertaining that burning desire to put our true life's work into existence.

Make the changes that are necessary to truly capture how you would live if I told you that your time was limited. Your time is about to expire and your number will soon be called. Live life as if tomorrow is NOT promised and live each breath you take with a purpose for one day you will realize that those breaths you took that are worth more than others wasted, for they are the ones that you will remember when your TIME has come to an end! - Jessica
