My Take On Time

Now I don't mean to get all guru on you drones but this is a very important subject, matter of fact it's probably one of the most important subjects period. More people should think about time and their relation to it. If people thought about their time once in a while maybe they could snap out of their zombie-like state they have to go under just to make it through the day. Think for a second what you think of when you think of the word "time".

   Probably responsibilities, how little TIME you have to get shit done, trying to be on TIME for stuff (like a filthy job), etc. Mostly the drones that I've talked to relate time to everyday tedious bull shit but that ain't what I'm talking about. I'm talking about HOW MUCH TIME YOU HAVE ON EARTH. I know that may seem like a jump in contrast but the working-undead need to consider this concept . . . everyday.

   We all acknowledge that life is short and all the common cliches but have you really thought about how little time you have . . . all the way from usual human life expectancy down to your day to day schedule?


First, how do you put a price on time? How do you price something you only get one of like . . a LIFE? How in the HELL can you take a bunch of pieces of green paper in exchange for a huge piece of the one thing you get that you only get one of? And the thing you're selling is fragile as hell already and isn't promised tomorrow. Kind of gets you thinking doesn't it? Kind of makes you angry? It SHOULD. That's why I'm still disgruntled.

   I hear a lot of you bellyaching reading this, saying to yourself "Well disgruntled ex-employee I have bills to pay, it's easier to just sell my soul and not think about it than to acknowledge I have to do something about this shit." Well get over yourself. NO person has the right to place a value on another person's time or life. That responsibility belongs to the person selling it. If you agree that your time is worth 30 or 40k a year or however much they're saying your year is worth then you're not looking at the big picture.

   There are millionaire's that wouldn't get out of bed in the morning for 40k. They would rather spend their time their way. I'm not saying everybody is going to be a millionaire or that you even have that kind of ambition but you have to see that you MUST get into the mindset that you need to be doing whatever the hell YOU want to do with your time.  Look at how fast 10 years go by. 10 years isn't shit folks. And guess what? You only get about 7 or 8 of those . . . 9 if you're lucky.

   So while you're sitting at a job, your expiration date is getting closer, so are your bosses' and their bosses' all the way up. They depend on you not being aware of how little time you have to keep their evil empire going. Do you see your job passing out company workbooks on how to make your life the ultimate experience? HELL no.

   If you need any affirmation that living a life doing what other people want you to do talk to an old person you know that has regrets. You don't want to be that. So I suggest consider what you really want to do in life, get up, and go God damn do it because NOT doing what you want with your life is . . . a waste of time.
