    Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays.

    Man alone measures time.

    Man alone chimes the hour.

    And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures.

    A fear of time running out.
  • Ellaine Manlapazhas quoted4 years ago
    Try to imagine a life without timekeeping.

    You probably can’t. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie.

    Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays.

    Man alone measures time.

    Man alone chimes the hour.

    And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures.

    A fear of time running out.

    We cannot stop what Heaven chooses.

    We do not realize the sound the world makes—unless, of course, it comes to a stop. Then, when it starts, it sounds like an orchestra.

    When you are measuring life, you are not living it.

    I lived,” Dor said, “but I was not alive.”

    There is a reason God limits our days.”

    “Why?”

    “To make each one precious.”
  • Solejoy Cariaso Lpthas quoted4 years ago
    “With endless time, nothing is special. With no loss or sacrifice, we can’t appreciate what we have.
  • Solejoy Cariaso Lpthas quoted4 years ago
    “Ends are for yesterdays, not tomorrows.”
  • Solejoy Cariaso Lpthas quoted4 years ago
    Time is not something you give back. The very next moment may be an answer to your prayer. To deny that is to deny the most important part of the future.
