Time

It doesn’t matter how much you earn or how successful you are, Father Time cannot be cheated

I see so many people on here bickering and being shitty and wasting so much precious time and energy over complete bullshit that doesn’t even matter

I invested wisely in some ways

Wasted poorly in others

Made me realise what’s important and what’s not and that – moving forward what I will aggressively push towards…

…and equally retreat away from

If no harm is being done?

Live and let live

Because ultimately?

Life is precious

And life is short

The more I spend time online the more I realise that the world offline is where I need to invest as well as ‘double down’ on this people hat value me and visa versa online

Not wasting it on negative fuckery or with people who either add no value to our lives or just take take take

It needs to be spend people who value us

Respect us

And want to be with us

As I’ve gotten older I’ve realised that there are truly good people who even though aren’t in my life per second anymore or are ‘virtual’ (aka my digital brothers and sisters)

Still make the time to make the time when it matters

Equally there are people who proclaim to be there for you and when you need it

*crickets*

Shit like that used to get to me but now I realise it’s just people being people

No need to be angry

Just step forward and make peace with it

And my advice – which you can take or leave because, let’s just be honest – I’m just a dude from Facebook

Whether you are religious or not

Whatever your beliefs are

Our time on this planet is brief and can be cut short at any time

You have a finite investment ‘pot’ in your time

Invest wisely

Waste sparsely

Enjoy your time and your loved ones people of FB

And don’t forget to do what makes you happy

One roll of the dice

Don’t waste it

Popped up on memories and thought would be good to share here
