Of course they have...all through life people are asking "What time is it?" We have watches on our wrists, clocks in almost every room of where we live, clocks on our computers...banks have signs that tell us the time. Songs are written about time. We measure time by calendars. We measure time by events in our lives. We may hear a song on the radio that takes us back to a 'time' in our lives.
Time. There's one more way I'd like you to look at time. Talk to any elderly person and they will tell you they can't believe how fast the time went! They'll start a sentence with, "why it was just yesterday...my goodness where did the time go?"
You see for many of us the tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it. Time gets away from us before we even realize it.
For many of us in life it's time to action. Time to live with your priorities in mind and stop wishing things were different. Time to stop smoking, start exercising and eating right. Time to make that appointment, hug your child (even if they are older and now bigger than you), tell your friends and family members how much they mean to you, start that business, read that book, take that trip, make a difference.
What time is it?
It's time to start living and stop waiting.
