penny for a thought

"Time is a gift" when the second hand ticks slowly, the minute hand seems to take an eternity, and you cherish every bit of it, letting the details carefully filter through your eyes. Having the attitude that "time is a gift" is a positive way to approach everyday life because you're actually thankful for each second or minuet that fills up your day, no matter how monotonous it may feel. You can never go back to a certain moment in time, so it's better to just make the best out of every moment and be excited that you are able to live through it. The attitude that "time is money", however, is a greedy way to look at time. if you're constantly worried about what you can do to benefit yourself then you'll never have time to enjoy the simple pleasures of life. money is temporary but experiences and memories are irreplaceable. However, if you are constantly trying to view "time as a gift" you might end up really disappointed at times because sometimes time really sucks and there are moments that you wish would have never happened.
