We Are All Starved For Time
« on: July 15, 2010, 11:41:57 AM »
by Laura Vanderkam

“It is an unquestioned truth of modern life: we are all starved for time. With the rise of 2-income families, extreme jobs, and the ability to log on to the world around the clock, we can barely find time to breathe.

At least that’s the way the story goes. Yet there are some people who don’t seem to feel this way. Not only do they have full personal and professional lives, they often claim they could fit more in if they wished!

How do these people do so much with their time? How do they do so much and not even feel stressed about it?”

Of course they are not telling the truth! We got only one head, two hands and 24 hours a day.

 They are lying. The bare truth is, the world nowadays is so stressful. It looks like there are so many things to do yet too little time to do it. I only work 14 hours a month, that means in every 2 days I am off. But, still I can hardly mowe my yard, dont have time to visit friends and step kids and grands, still not statified with the orderliness of my house, and still many things left undone and still hanging on my head.

Maybe we should learn to be content with fewer and lesser accomplishments?

14 hours a month? Hehehehehehe, that must be 14 days a month. My friend was laughing when she read this, and told me the prosti works harder than I do.

Fewer and lesser serve our minds better. Things to do are overwhelming and oftentimes the end results are frustrating. Human oh human versus time oh time...why can't we not just naturally move like the hands of the clock.

It's really difficult to draw the line between ambition and contentment, between making the most of life and being thankful for what one has. The need for self-fulfillment can, before one knows it, easily slide into overweening ambition, just as an honest acceptance of one's lot in life can pretty much look like indolence and defeatism.

days are shorter nowadays. meaning, time flies so fast. i work 5 days a week, 10 hours a day. magda pa gyud ug "bringhouse" nga trabaho. but for me, it doesn't matter because i love my job. it's just a matter of time management. don't forget to have a family day once a week.

I never know the word "stress out" until I came here in U.S.Time is you don't have.So many things to do,coming home from work too tired to do some of the things you plan to do.Just to ran an errand already uses a part of your day,how time flies.Now that I am approaching 50 years old and one of my best friend's cancer is back it saddened me to think and made me realize there is more to life than just work..work..work.

How much we are "starved for time" is in direct proportion to the magnitude of our failure to appreciate the glory of the moment. -- Botoy

Gimme one moment in time  ;D

When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heart beat away
And the answers are all up to me

Then in that one moment of time
 I will feel eternity  ;D

Next only to the arrival of the English in 1607 and their departure in 1781, the months of the winter of 1609–10, known as the Starving Time, rank atop the memorable events of Virginia's history. Hundreds of settlers died for want of food. Some were reduced to cannibalism.

Since the first English fleet dropped anchor in the river they named for King James, off the island where they raised Jamestown, there had been a stream of arriving colonists to hew a living out of the relatively benign Virginia environment. Crops grew easily and readily ripened, fish were plentiful, game abounded in the forests, and if one was careful, wild plants, fruits, and nuts were edible. To transported Londoners this would have been as close to Eden as they could have imagined. So what went wrong?
