We use a lot of different verbs to describe what we do with time. We make it, spend it, use it, save it, trade it, stretch it, enjoy it, lose it, gain it, invest it, welcome it, dread it, steal it, run after it, have it or don’t have it… Most of these verbs could be used for money as well, isn’t that interesting?
   It is an error to think that we can make time. Or that some of us have more of it than others. We each have 24 hours every single day. That’s 1440 minutes, or 86400 seconds. Your seconds aren’t longer or shorter than mine, they are all exactly the same. So the issue is not how much of it we have, but rather what we do with what we have–how we invest it.
   Time is the currency of life. We get another stash of it every morning–and at the end, we will get to give an account of what we did with it. And we don’t get to point the finger at anybody else. “He made me do it” won’t stand; we each must take responsibility for our own actions concerning time.
   We trade money for things we want or need–and so it goes with time. We trade it for what we want or need. Or we waste it. It’s really up to us. But one thing is for sure: we can’t save time for tomorrow; we’ve got to spend it today, whether we feel like it or not. If we do not purposely spend it, it’ll just spend itself, one second at a time, until it runs out at midnight.
   My heavenly currency is not waiting for me today–it’s already spending itself. Let me go and spend it in such a way that there won’t be any regrets.
