Time is a Monster


Timing is everything. Tell me you haven't heard that before. And the worst part is, it is true. When you want something and can't have it, it is usually because the timing is off--whatever the reason behind it: money, mental clarity, etc. Everything happens for a reason. That I do believe.  Timing in the scheme of that saying ("everything happens for a reason"), is crucial...events occur in the order, sequence, and TIME they are supposed to. I'm not one for patience. Don't get me wrong, I try--but maybe if I had answers, this timing business would be a little easier to bear.  People come in and out of your life, goals begin to change, interests begin to change, life begins to settle AND then "time" comes along and ruins the party.  

If we lived in a suspended reality without "time" we'd float off like martians into some hippy-dippy delirium. There it is: hippy-dippy delirium or crash-the-life-party.  Neither seem like good options. My friend recently sent me a quote with a positive outlook: "sometimes life doesn't turn out the way we want, sometimes it turns out better." Let's just say I'm waiting.
