Precious Time and People

Pic from FB

I was going to write "now that I have more time on my hands" when I realised that I have the same amount of time as everybody else.  So the reality is that I don't have more time, I just have more free time now.  

In any case, the most precious thing I have to give is my love. Having said that, sometimes time can be translated as love and vice versa.

Often I am said to be guilty of not being somewhere, not doing something or not meeting someone.  The thing is that, in my mind, I am fulfilling all the above!  I am always somewhere.  I am always doing something.  I am always spending time with people. 

It may not always be face to face but it's still time spent with people.  It could be via a phone call, chatting on line, an email or even having a conversation over a Facebook post.

Of course, I've been saying it so many times already, I'm retired now.  I guess it's hard for people who haven't really worked non-stop to understand how delicious it feels to retire.  I know of many people who never really worked full-time so for them it must be something normal to always have free time on their hands.  For me, time has always been such a precious commodity.  

When I was working, it was a case of being a genius in order to get everything done each day.  Now I no longer have that problem, every day is a relaxed day.

While I have more free time on my hands now, I find that I am still able to fill it up with reading, writing, interacting, visiting people and well, you get what I mean.  My "free" time is my "me" time.  Too often I see people wasting it doing what they think others want them to do.

I didn't realise that so many days have gone by since my last entry.  Ten days to be exact!!  I've been so busy with my precious time.

So if I am in touch with you, in any way, you should know that you are precious to me.
