What You Learn About Life With Time
Laugh, cry, jump, jump, say goodbye, come back, wait, deal with life, fall in love, eat chocolate, smell perfume, fail, fix it, write love letters, whole a broken heart, listen to your favorite song, be surprised , get angry, reflect, breathe…
We could go on and on giving our imagination free rein and thinking about all that is worthwhile and encouraging. But most of all, this article is a wish. A wish that you may live each day to the fullest.
Every day should give you goosebumps. We should sing, dance, talk and shout. But often we become like robots who are more worried about our busy schedule than making our lives colorful.
Life is transient and we often waste it
Do not reach yourself; You do not have to have the best and latest products on the market, go on the most expensive journey, be resoundingly successful or have the most perfect plastic surgery shaped body. Especially when you reach a certain age, it does not mean much more. But unfortunately, it takes us far too long to face it.
As John Lennon once said, “Life is what happens while you’re busy making other plans” . We pretend our time is not limited when time is in fact the most limited in the world and everything has an end.
“We are constantly filled with doubt. We wake up every day and think we have an eternity to understand what it means to realize ourselves and take another step towards our goals. ”
We forget that the sand moves quickly through the hourglass. It is up to us to move to the other side and continue climbing the mountain. We forget that the present is the only time we are guaranteed to have together.
What we learn over time
It takes time and love for yourself to begin this journey, with what it takes. In the following text, Jorge Luis Borges discusses the importance of being aware of the passage of time. Precisely because it is often what sheds light on our lives. We hope you enjoy it.
Over time , I learned the subtle difference between holding someone’s hand and chaining a soul. Over time, I learned that love does not mean leaning upward on anyone. And company does not mean security.
Over time, I began to realize that a kiss is not a contract, gift, or promise. Over time, I learned that you can be in a relationship because they can give you a good future. But that means you will sooner or later seek back to your past.
With time… you realize that you can get married only because “the time has come”. But that it is a clear warning that your marriage will fail.
In time, I realized that only those people who can love you with all your shortcomings, without wanting to change you, can give you the happiness you seek. Over time, you learn that you can not be in a relationship with someone because you are lonely. You will reach a point where you will not be with the person anymore.
Over time, you realize that true friends are worth a lot more than a pile of money. In time, I realized that true friends can be counted on one hand. If you do not struggle to hold on to them, you will sooner or later be surrounded by false friendships.
Over time, I learned that words that I expressed in anger can hurt someone for the rest of their lives. In time, I learned that everyone can ask for forgiveness, but only the greatest souls can forgive.
Over time, I learned that if you have truly hurt your friend, your friendship will never be the same again. Over time, you realize that you can appreciate the friends you have today. But one day will cry over those you have let go of.
Over time, you realize that the experiences you experience with a person cannot be repeated. Over time, you realize that there are people who humiliate or demean others. But sooner or later they will be subjected to 4 times as much humiliation and contempt.
Over time, you will only learn to make plans for today. Because tomorrow’s terrain may be uncertain. Over time, I came to understand that you can try to push or force a certain outcome. But it is not going to go as you hoped.
Over time, you realize that in reality, the best things in life come not later, but now. Over time, you will realize that even if you are happy with what you have right now, you will have a terrible longing for what you had yesterday. Which is now gone.
In time, I learned that it no longer makes sense to try to forgive or ask for forgiveness. Saying “I love you”, saying “I miss you” or saying “I want to be your friend” when you face death.
But unfortunately, you only understand this over time.
We postpone and put things away for better times when we have more time or when we have achieved our goals. If we do, we forget that the clock can not detect anything other than the 24 hours. And that the opportunity to fight for our dreams is what gives us the gift of the day.
Life is about interpreting the signs that are being sent to us that our other half is inside us. It does not make sense to search for something in the external circumstances when only our internal can give us life.
