The Luxury of Time #TheDailyPost

The luxury of time

Monday’s come and Monday’s gone
How quickly I don’t know
Soon Tuesday will also slip away
And the whole of August too

How I wish I had the luxury
Of bottling up each moment of the day
So that I could sip and savour it
Before it runs away

I long for the luxury of lazy days
To sit by a lily pool
And feed the ducks
And read a book
And nibble at chocolate
One, by assorted one.

Wow.. I think the luxury of time is in doing something we choose to do. But, I want to be as busy as you are when I retire :)

  Well I’m not retired . I never had a job so I’m never tired and there’s no question of getting re-tired ( sorry very bad pun) .
  Honestly I’m so busy I have no time to think and that’s a good thing …

Of late my days have been like that, breezing past me. It’s already August and I have so many things to do. That luxury time sounds like a dream :)

  I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels this way. Often I don’t get time to think leave alone write!

Ha Ha!Being lazy is a luxury we cannot afford in our adult years.But the heart does yearn for a bit of laziness.

Yummy choco. Time is running fast like the flicker of wind and it leaves us no time to realize.

Oh yes, I feel now more than ever how time is a luxury. I like to keep myself busy but there is simply never enough time to do things I like. I often wish I didn’t have to sleep at all so I could use the whole night to read. ;)

  Lots of people seem to have this problem. Are we doing more than we really can?
