On our side



There is more to life than increasing its speed. -Mohandas Gandhi

    Time. Many wish for more of it, but why? Are we asking for more chances and opportunities or trying to add hours to our day? The latter will stay at 24 no matter how hard we try, but the first is in our grasp. The river of time only flows in one direction, our struggle against the current is our only control. If we fight to go back or push to go forward, we miss where the river has taken us and thus everything around us.
    If we can take a honest look at what surrounds us, without the anxiety of time, the opportunities can be seen on either shore. They are in our daily routines and offbeat thoughts, it's our choice to choose and take our chances, one day at a time. For everything you want cannot be made in a day, but all the tools you need are always with you. So gather some wood, build a raft and enjoy what time can offer, here and now.
