Making Time, Taking Time

by | Nov 27, 2013 | Life & Faith | 2 comments

“I don’t have time for that.”
“I don’t have enough time.”
“I’m out of time.”
“This is not a good time for me.”
Oh–anyone else use statements like that?
For the last few months I’ve had a default conversational setting, “You think you’re swamped? Well, top this.”
The holiday season adds to the intensity…time is a precious, precious commodity.
My ‘can you top this?’ frame of mind was due to the demands of a new job with a very steep learning curve.  It had been consuming not only my days but my nights and weekends, too.
However…..
It’s funny how you can make time for what you think is important.
Not easy. Not convenient, but do able.
And life-changing.
