Need Time?

The daily writing prompt asks – Do you need time?

A bizarre question. I assume everyone needs time. Well maybe those who are doing time don’t want more but speaking personally, I want as much time as possible.

What I want more though is to be productive in lots of things in the time I do have. I saw a movie recently and it had the line – “Time is luck” -and the response was “Luck run out” when two had to part at the end. Sort of like a statement on life.

Some are very unfortunate and have very little time. I’ve been blessed and have had lots of time. I’d love to have lots more because I’m so happy with what I’m doing with time now.

I put some of that in last year’s post called The Sands of Time.

The sands of Time

Do you need time? – The Daily writing prompt asks the obvious.

You bet I need time. I’ve got lots of love to share. I’ve got tons of creative ideas to put to screen and paper. I’ve got a desire to put many more miles on the car. I’ve got boatloads of energy to play with my grandchildren.

I need time to improve my cooking skills. I need time to walk and explore many more places. I need time to learn how to properly relax. I need time to learn many new things. I need time to put my toes in the sand and listen to the waves hitting the shore again.

I’ve got books to write that require lots of time. I’ve got people to help and we all know that is time-consuming. I’ve got to get the basement cleaned because if time runs out on me, my better half is not going to be happy.

I’ve never had the time, in life, to do many things I love. I finally have that and I’d like some more. So maybe a better answer would have just been YES, I NEED TIME.
