Killing time

I was watching a TV documentary on latest gadgets and the presenter said ‘…to kill time…’ and I thought why would anyone kill time since it has become such a scarcity these days…

We do not have enough time to rest, to reflect, to relax, to travel, to do nothing, to be with family and friends, yet we want to ‘kill time’. Very ironic.

We think the electronic gadgets we own will help us kill time … actually, it might kill us… since we do not rest our eyes, our mind, and relax our bodies…… and we wonder why we lead such a busy life!

So may be the phrase ‘kill time’ is obsolete and the new one could be ‘how to make time’ or ‘how to stretch time’ ………

Quotations:

God starts us out on a life course to fulfill a certain purpose and then, only when we are ready, He gives us course corrections. Like a good river pilot, He steers us away from troubled waters, and like a good coach, He never puts us in the game until we are ready. The journey is never boring.

REMEMBER THIS ABOUT YOU...

  Read this out loud to yourself, and mean it!!

  I am precious, valuable, lovable and capable.
  The world will not be the same without me.
  I make a difference in this world, in the community I live in.
  I can make another person smile.
  I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
  I sing for I am loved by a great God whose nature is to give  love, mercy and grace.

  [In Hindi]
  Mai amulya hoon.
  Yeh duniya mayray bina wahi nahin rahegi.
  Mayray hone say is duniya mein kuch badlav hai.
  Mujh se doosre ke chahre pay muskuraahat aati hai.
  Mujhe bhayankar se banaya gaya hai.
  Mujhe gaana hai ki ek mahaan; ishwhar mujhe pyaar karte.
  Hain aur mayray prati daya dikhaate hain.
