Time

Time, good or evil? They say that time heals all wounds, they being Chaucer ("As tyme hem hurt, a tyme doth hem cure") or Greek playwright Menander ("Time is the healer of all necessary evils"). So is time good or evil. In theory, If Money is the root of all evil ( Timothy 6:10 ) and time is money ( Benjamin Franklin) then time is evil. However, if time does heal then time is good. This whole question is a waste of time and do you care if you waste something evil, so time is good. Time is the bane of society it seems. We as a community don't have enough time in the day to do everything we would like. Are we overdoing it or are we just poor when it comes to time management? Play dates, I hate the word itself. Do we have so many things going on that we have to schedule time for our kids to play? I hate to look ahead and see that the next few weekends already have things planned for them. Where is that free time I was promised?

We our proud of ourselves when we multi task, aren't we wonderful we can work more into our 24 hour day. Screen in screen TV, watch two things at once. DVR, HULU or OnDemand, watch TV when you want ( notice they don't say " when you have time")

I guess the point of this is that we need to stop and smell the roses sometimes.

as far as time goes, we have:

Good times, bad times, hard times, fast times, if you are at Ridgemont High, down time, high times, New York times, time of your life, as time goes by, no time, time comes today, baby one more time, back in time, biding my time, wasting my time, prime time, olde time, signs of the times, time flies, time drags, one step at a time, time after time, take your time, the first time, the last time, the longest time and ain't it funny how time slips away.

times up.
