How often do we try to fast forward time?

Tweet

Hey Mylotters! Have you ever been told not to fast forward time? I've been told that often but often wondered... Why? If my present sucks, why not want time to fast forward me out of this present situation? I've spent many a day on auto-pilot waiting for a better situation until I learned... Well you'll see... My son has a field trip tomorrow. With not so many field trips scheduled this year, he's super excited and he can't wait to go. On Friday he was upset it wasn't Monday. Last Monday & every Monday before that, he was mad it wasn't Friday. On Saturday, he started bothering me about it. Today, same thing. He's about to explode! On the other hand... I have about 5 projects due Monday. His little distractions regarding this field trip are slowing my efforts towards completion. I am trying to slow time. I don't have enough of it and I fear I'm not going to be done. I started thinking... My son has a great lesson in front of him. Instead of worrying about tomorrow, live today or you will drive yourself and everyone else (or at least your mother) bonified CRAZY! Sheesh!
