Time Can Disappear on You, But it's Not Always Bad

Time is a strange thing. If you are ambitious and motivated time becomes a powerful tool of your success.

But if you are struggling, time can seem like sands of an hourglass slipping away.

Sometimes we find ourselves in the blink of an eye a year or three later down the road from decisions we made. Or from decisions we didn't make and should have.

But sometimes time slipping away isn't actually all that bad. Sometimes you need that time, slowly ticked away for you to process something. For you to find something inside yourself. For the right people to come along in your life. Or for you to accept a mistake was made.

I take myself. I was doing a drawing a day and posting about it here. Then stuff came up and I lost track of time. It's almost a year later now. And that's a year of practice I could have gotten in, but didn't.

However in truth it's been a great year of learning more about myself and what God wants from me going forward. Had I dove headlong into my ambitions I would not have grown, I would not have healed, I would have built what "I" wanted not what I was called to.

A great person once told me:

"I need to make the mistake to learn"

Aren't we all like that? Everyone one of us? In some form or another we all make mistakes and learn from them. And sometimes that mistake is letting time pass by. Perhaps it even feels like too much time now. But that's not necessarily the case.

It just depends on what God's plans were, not yours.
