Time?














Sometimes I think this is the right time - a time for me to pen my thoughts. But sometimes when I have time, the thoughts procrastinate to flow from my little mind. There are times when I seem to grab all the thoughts from running out of time! I do have time because in a day there are 24 hours though sometimes, I think an extra time of up to 36 hours is needed to accomplish all my tasks on time.

Time sometimes plays with my emotions.  It makes me so jittery when I'm given a very short notice to deal with matters work-related in so little a time. This is when I'll skip my tea time, me-self time and blogging time. And  my superiors have all the times to instruct me to do work sharp on time!

At one time, I read Time Management. It's not because I can't manage my time. It's just that from time to time, I need to refresh my mind and see how much have I spent on time without letting it slips through my fingers one at a time.

People say time is precious. I wonder how many people do take some time to evaluate it. In the belief of my people, time always envies us. Why? It's because when we're handling certain work, time doesn't want us to spend an over-time on it. Instead we have to keep looking at the time before time's up!

Wishing everyone a great time this Sunday and at any other time!

Now, it's time to move on...


**If you have time, please read this. If not, keep it for next time. Do drop by again at any time.

  1. Very well written Balqis! The use of time umpteenth number of times made this post a delight. I agree with you. Time is the problem and solution as well. I think it's a major prankster which plays with us all the time. :D

    1. You're the early bird! Your comment is here now. I don't know why was it directed to spam. There must be a glitch in bloggers.

      Thank you, Sui, for your kind words. You're right indeed on how time could be a problem and solution. We need to work on it. :)

    1. We're always busy and for that reason, we use up so much of our times. That's why 24 hours isn't enough.

      Appreciate your comments, Aunt Mary. :)

  4. You see now why I asked "Time controlling" as a superpower in the questions of "3 heads in the Clouds" for the Liebster Award!

    Your text is deep, intelligent and funny, BB!

    1. Yes, Od, I understand why you asked for it. I wish it'd be granted to you so that you could become The Master of Time. Perhaps you could change the 24 hrs a day to 36. The power is in your hand. :)

      Thank you so much for your generous comments and for liking this post. :)

  5. Time- which is time of our all the time we can get or we can hope to consume, even those times we spend in dreams- on a day or night time-

    And, Time- of our happiness, lazy or cozy- which is how we feel or try to grasp, those times of our past, present and future-

    And Time, which is always running, few or those who try to cage them- having really Time of abranuisense!! :))

    2. Thanks BB- :))

      Since been struck-ed by Time, your post influence the inner soul greatly! Sometime mind becomes timeless, that effects how time is going fast- then a week or couple of weeks almost same to me which ultimately disconnect a lot of things for the time being!!

      Glad, you didn't ask about "abranuisense"- LOL

    3. LOL...The first time I saw it, I wanted to ask. But as I said, I was speechless at that time and by the time I read the whole comments, I forgot to ask though I still have got plenty of time!

      Thanks many, many times for being here again. you make my day! :)

  12. Hey Balqis!! Lovely Post, and wow this is so true about time. I can relate to you. Time is so precious. Since I was in high school, I always loved that quote...

    "Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you."
    Carl Sandburg

    Some of us either don't use our precious time properly or it's all used up for work and then you get to have no time for yourself. Life is so short. We just have to find the right way to manage our time.

    :-) Take care {excuse me for the long comment, hehe}

  13. Time is the base of life. I like the way you emphasize the importance of time by repeating the word many times. Since I started with my career life, I've been struggling with time and that's when I really learned how precious time is.
    Lovely post, Balqis. The clock is ticking and I need to move on to the next post :)
