Well timed!

“When you do everything on time, then…you have time for everything”!…I quoted during a training session, in context of ‘holistic living’.          

………………………

I am no fan of handing over one’s life to the hands of the clock and am also not a punctuality fanatic who closes the door on people’s faces. I vouch for free will and endorse the liberty to live by an inner compass rather than by the watch on the wrist.

Yet I am a firm believer in having an awareness of the passage of time. It is important to have a sense of the apt timing, duration and frequency of every insignificant yet concrete act that you pursue. As, put together, they form the abstract concept called ‘life’!

So…! I wouldn’t want to be a horse with the blinders on! But I also wouldn’t want to be a street-dog who lets his tendencies and temptations decide the course of his day.

………………………

…I would be more comfortable being a human with the discretion to choose when to be what…and enough will-power to stand by his choice.
