dear time,

Society is sorry for taking you for granted.  People don't take the time an appreciate the now. We surround ourselves in deadlines, and the idea of going back and trying to fix our past. If we read, and understood the phrase 'time is a gift' opposed to "time as money' our outlook on many day to day events would change. I once read an article on doing what you love, and the money following. This couldn't be more true. Society stresses in the business world to make money and spend so much of their time thinking about what needs to be done, not what they are really doing. Not enjoying the time in a day, makes us loose a lot of who we are. Mayans were way ahead of their time with the development of the calendar and although the were also concerned with time, I bet they viewed time more as(is) a gift, than time as money.
