Time: Wandering Thought #262
Have a sense of urgency every day, because time is always running out, with the sun about to set. Or have the same sense of urgency every night, also because time is always running out, with the sun about to rise – if you spend more time doing stuff at night. It is urgent because day by day, and night by night, life is always running out.
Yet, despite the urgency, keep calm and be clear-minded – to mindfully decide what is the most important to do, and how best to do it. Otherwise, life is just going to be a continual anxiety attack. It will be the opposite of just bumming along in life, leading to a final ‘regret attack’ when this life ends, for not having done much that is meaningful. Seek the Middle Path and take it now. Get to somewhere purposefully and steadily.
