I've been thinking a lot about time and how little of it we truly have. One of the things that gets to me these days is 'wasting time'. I wish people spent more quality time together and even by themselves. Just utilizing that time. I really wish people saw all the opportunity that is directly in front of them, or at least some of it; and ACTED on it. This relates a lot to teenagers in high school. I've felt very encouraged by the following quotes.
“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
-Steve Jobs
“If you don't feel strong desires for the manifestation of the glory of God, it is not because you have drunk deeply and are satisfied. It is because you have nibbled so long at the table of the world. Your soul is stuffed with small things, and there is no room for the great.”
― John Piper, A Hunger For God
"Each morning we are born again. What we do today is what matters most."
