“Try to imagine a life without timekeeping. You probably can’t. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie. Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays. Man alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures. A fear of time running out.”
― Mitch Albom, The Time Keeper

Time went too fast.
Time went off too furiously.
I do not know whether time are really worth keeping.
Maybe for once, I should really let time runs wild.
Let time falls apart and maybe it will consider stopping for me.
Nah! What nonsense am I babbling about?
I have all the time in my life.
The auntie at the bed fifteen have all the time in her life.
She did not threw it away.
She used it despite the knowing fear looming from every of her meeting with us.
Yet, her time is not for keep.
She let her time went freely from time to time.
And I do not know the reason or the compulsion brewing in me,
I had used up my time so that she maybe, probably, possibly have more time
When someone gives you their time,
they are giving you a portion of their life that they will never get back.
It’s one of the most precious gifts you can receive.
Don’t waste it
I wish her well. Always.
