Time is said to be eternal.It is said that it has neither a beginning nor an end.Yet men are able to measure it as years,months,days,hours,minutes and seconds.They have also given meanings to the words – past,present and future.True,time has a meaning.It moves.What was yesterday is not today.What is today will not be tomorrow.Yesterday is gone.Today is and tomorrow is yet to come.Yet time is said to have no holiday.It exists always.
The entire creation moves on according to a time pattern.There is birth,growth and death.There is time for everything.Plants flower and give fruits.Seasons come according to time.A child is born,grows into boyhood,adolescence,youth,middle age and old age according to age and time.Every movement of creation is linked with time.One cannot grow paddy in a month nor can a child become an adult in a year.Everything is fixed to a time-frame.
Time is a free force.It does not wait for any one.It is commonly said that time and tide waits for no man.Time is money.A minute not usefully spent is an eternal loss.You can never get back the lost minute.One has to strike the iron when it is hot.The time flies and never returns.If you waste time it wastes you.
‘Time is the best medicine’,says Ovid.It is said that time heals all wounds and it even heals what reason cannot.All human beings are emotional.When negative emotions like fear,anger,envy and jealousy overtake them,they lose reason and act in haste leading to serious consequences.They may repent later,as emotions cool down.But the damage done is done and remains forever.Even that damage can heal with the passage of time.People involved may forget and forgive.That is the importance of time and its healing touch.
Time is said to be a wise counselor.Passage of time allows an individual to grow.This growth gives experience.Experience helps decision making.Time reminds you to act and to act wisely.The wisest make use of the time fruitfully.It is said that the wisest grieve the most at the loss of time.
Those who do not know the importance of time,waste it or rather they spend it doing nothing.There is a proverb which says that killing time is not a murder; it is a suicide.It means,by wasting time one is not harming others.On the other hand one is harming himself.Ordinary people merely go on thinking how to spend their time.The wise and talented make use of it fruitfully.
Some people always complain that there is no time fort them to do anything.That is not correct.If one wisely plans his activities,there will be time for everything happening according to time.A man who is a part of nature cannot complain against time.Time is powerful.It conquers all.Men are only to obey it.Man cannot say that he has nothing of his own.Time which is valuable is all his own.
If you are not on time and miss the train,you miss it fore-ever.So also the time,once you miss it,it flies off.You can never catch it.Hence it is called fleeting time.Let us learn to use our time fruitfully.This is the key to success.
