Why we can’t stop time, but we can make it count.
It remains impossible to stop time, yet the irresistible quest for it betrays a deep desire-namely, the wish to control or escape time. Life always slips away too quickly; we wish for its moments to slow down. Still, the very flow of time gives life its meaning. For every second that passes, it is gone forever, and every future second is full of possibilities.
Rather than wishing time to stand still, perhaps the greater answer is to live with it. Time slips away, but that’s all part of the reason for our treasure. We can truly experience living life in the living moment as we understand the beauty through every single second.
