Nono Semen: I don’t have Time… We have enough Time


We hear or use these words daily. Amazingly enough, they are both true in our mind, only the context makes a difference.
Still… It has been proven that time is a limited resource. Tick-tock, tick-tock… Maybe the most precious resource.
A good skill is to always know how to juggle both. Gods would have it easier, being immortal and all, they can get it wrong indefinitely. But we are under a constant pressure. We make mistakes, and we learn, and this makes us evolve.
I have been working for many years… with time. When I open my mic on radio, I am aware of the importance of my thirty seconds to convey something of importance: a piece of information, a suggestion, an idea, a state. And I also know that seconds are flying like crazy during that “live”, but it seems to me that time stays still. It’s true: it seems to freeze. This is our trick, the mortals’ trick, and it seems it is unknown to gods. We’ve learnt to stop time when we are happy.
And the best device of making time stand still, that we owe to gods, it is something close to us: our children. Try to hold them, play with them, get into their beautiful world. As much as you can. Because you have time…
This will not guarantee you’ll never get old, but you will become much better.
