You Really Are !

The Pilot

"The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot"

Wow, where did that hour go?

I just looked at the time and it was ?

5 minutes ago (or so it seemed).

It's true isn't it,

we look at our watches and then,

before we even know it,

3 hours have gone by and we should be on our way home.

How can we control time?

Well,

to a certain degree we can't

because we need to

work, go to college, have appointments, and the list really is endless.

But we do need to keep 'Control' of time

and planning our day

definately helps,

if only to make sure

we know when we need to take our tablets.

But we need to 'Control' time for another reason ---

our Health!

Yes, both mentally and physically

we need to keep 'Control' of our time

so that we know where we are and why we are there (or here).

Also,

we need to give ourselves some "me time",

so make that time / date

enjoy that 30 minutes of just sitting down,

reading your book

(or watching your favourite program),

with a drink and something to eat.

SEE

that you really are

the Pilot of your own Time.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
