Time. Last night I had a dream.

Hmm, it seems I am repeating myself writing about time management!! (Read the blog on Focussing dated two days ago).

The following lines were written three years ago and it seems, the struggle is still here.

"I was a bit late for some class, had to go to the bathroom, though, and while I was waiting for my turn, my watch broke. 
It wasn't just stopping, no, it burst open. All the mechanical parts of it flew away.

After my initial shock I tried to collect the parts. 
For some reason I was devastated. 
I couldn't manage finding them all, of course, and while I tried to collect myself as well, someone came by asking what I was doing. I told him and also that now I would definitely be late for class. He said, "oh, don't worry about that, just do what you have to do, but have no illusions that you will manage to bring all the parts together".

I woke up, mildly surprised about the dream, because in real life I cannot imagine myself being so confused about a broken watch. Now, what to do. I started looking for the symbology here, of course.

Symbology.
Time, I cannot control it, I cannot stop it, it goes by, I don't have enough time for all the things I want to do, time flies, it feels like today it just drags... so much to do with time.

This exercise, of course, leads to Acceptance.

Acceptance.
I have to accept that there are choices to be made. I simply cannot do everything I want to do in the same time frame. 
There is a time and place for everything. I can be multi-tasking, but .. I do have to take care my head remains clear, keep the overview,don't get stressed.

Is there still time to just do nothing at all? Do I have enough time to meditate? Aha!! There we are!!

I want to sit in stillness for at least 45 minutes a day! 
Do I have time for that? Yes! 
Do I take time for that? Nooo, well at least not every day. 
How does it make me feel? A bit sad. 
Why? Because that is really ME-time. Time to find my centre, time to be at-one- with-all-there-is. 
Okay. What do I do about the situation? 
Plan the time in, of course! Time management!! 

Oh yes. I bought this app for my iPhone, a timer, with these wonderful sounding Tibetan bells. What a wonderful way to start the day. Just sitting in the silence, no fear that I go in too deep so that I rudely come to my senses by the sound of the doorbell and my first client standing on my doorstep.

I feel grateful, that my subconscious mind gave me this dream and the insight to write this blog, not only to share but most especially to be able to go back to this moment in time, when it is necessary."

So, a.d. July 23 2015 it really is time to slow down, take it easy and enjoy the good things in life even more.
