Time
Recently a friend told me in an e-mail that she could not attend an event as it interfered with her typical time with a family member. She added that this time was precious. It made me stop and think about being present to others and being busy, on the go and off to the next thing.
When any of us pause to consider it, isn’t time with special people that we know precious time? How can we flag this in our minds on a regular basis? Perhaps we have to tell ourselves to pay close attention, to value a simple act of being met at the door by a familiar person or focusing closely on a telephone conversation. Or it might be helpful to step back and consider that our journey through time is unique and no exchange with another can be repeated.
