How to Kill Time

i got this from the "super dami" na blog entries ni sir bong last week. LOL! it made me stop & think...and i realize, sometimes, we are the ones slowly killing our ourselves with things that we should not worry about...anyway, just read on...its worth it...

How To Kill Time
Leo Rock, SJ


How do I kill time?
Let me count the ways.

By worrying about things
Over which I have no control.
Like the past.
Like the future.

By harboring resentment
and anger
over hurts
real or imagined.

By disdaining the ordinary
or, rather, what I
so mindlessly
call ordinary.

By concern over what's in it for me,
rather than what's in me for it.

By failing to appreciate what is
because of might-have-beens,
should-have-beens,
could-have-beens.

These are some of the ways
I kill time.

Jesus didn't kill time.
He gave life to it.
His own
