I lay awake in bed this morning thinking about time, how fast it goes and how little of it we have. Then I got up and did my routine and meditated, slipping into the slipstream of the present, where there's so much wonder, time becomes irrelevant.

Our species is the only one on this planet that reflects on the former and loses sight of the latter. We measure time and record it and reference it to the end of accomplishing great things, but we must not let it become our master.

Because life really is too short, when viewing the bigger picture. And that view is only available when we're truly immersed in this amazing phenomenon we call life.
