The tyranny of time. Reflection

in Silver Bloggers3 months ago

Time is an executioner, everyone talks about how fast the days go by, time and heat are the nouns that are heard the most. People never tire of being amazed: "it seems unbelievable that the month is almost over" or any other day of the week is mentioned. You start doing something and it's already noon and night comes and you haven't finished what you wanted to do. It's everyone's reality.

The passing of time brings with it age and its ailments. The networks are filled with suggestions for gray hair or wrinkles and people follow them in the hope of stopping the inevitable. Those who have more money choose to inject themselves with products that promise to slow down aging, without thinking about the consequences. Some become obsessed with this issue and can transform their physical appearance and become unrecognizable in order not to show the consequences of the passage of time.

These are cycles that, when completed, bring with them belonging to a human group characterized by a way of being and behaving that follows the same patterns as those who preceded them: this is about old age, a period where one becomes unnoticed and even annoying, when the patterns that are planned are broken, some can fall into the circle of indifference.

One day it is discovered that there is not enough time, that there are still things to do; but the severity of life itself gives no respite, memories pass through the mind and efforts are made to draw how the children were at eight, nine, ten years old and even in adolescence. Many moments have been mercilessly erased.

Life has been spent fulfilling work schedules and social commitments, the children grew up and precious moments were lost, because obligations did not allow them to always be present. Now they would like to recover those experiences, but the children do not have time, now they are the ones who are caught up in their own life dynamics, running from one place to another to fulfill their own commitments.

No one prepares for old age, one day they discover themselves with the list of medications for hypertension, and they have more appointments with doctors than with someone in their family, they are frequently immersed in discussions where they question parenting methods, teaching methods or the music that is spread everywhere, always against and with anachronistic solutions that no one pays attention to.

One day, while watching some children running in a park, she discovers that she did not have enough time to hug more, forgive, cook with her partner, dance, write poetry, make oil paintings, study a language, learn to knit, among others, that she had time left over to argue about nonsense, complain about those she loved, criticize her loved ones, bother the neighbors and watch the news. #

You can learn to build time, if you take minutes away from your bad temper and give them to contemplating nature, for example, if you take time away from worries and add time to talking to a child. If you give time to hobbies, a walk and breathing. Time will always be the tyrant, but you can live in harmony with the world, celebrating life and being thankful.
