Are We Running Out Of Time

Are We Running Out Of Time

Time is a funny thing. We sometimes have too much time and sometimes we don't have enough time. The first thing that pops into most peoples' mind is that as we grow older, we feel like we're running out of time. If you look at the facts, more people die before fifty than die at eighty.

People at fifty or younger die from car accidents, health problems, drugs, shootings, work stress and or suicide. 

People in their seventies and eighties don't drive drunk and some don't drive at all. People in their seventies and eighties don't do enough drugs to kill themselves. People in their seventies and eighties are more conscious of their health and do things to stay alive longer. Younger people take health for granted. 

People in their seventies and eighties don't belong to gangs that shoot each other. People in their seventies and eighties are retired and don't have work stress. People in their seventies and eighties almost never commit suicide - they want more out of life not less.

Sooo, who is really running out of time? 

People fifty and younger take time for granted. They need to pay more attention to life. They need to realize that time is running out for them. They need to realize how precious time is. They need to pay attention to their health, their stress, be very careful when they drive, get the right help when life doesn't go as planned and stop misusing drugs and alcohol. 

I'm seventy four and time is not on my side, but that just makes me want to get the most out of life in the time I have left. My suggestion to everybody is:

Focus Less On Time And More On Life
