Poverty of time

Sometimes we live with the feeling of time-poverty. It’s often paired with a longing — as though by wanting, we could create more minutes in the day.

Yes, our time in this existence is finite. But for now, each of us has the fulness of this moment.

There is no poverty of time, but rather the richness of the present. Our ability to live in that richness is not a function of our productivity. It’s a function of our consciousness and our ability to pay attention.
