I am busy here at work when I look at the wall clock, it's already past 3 in the afternoon. It's already our break time. So my colleagues take a coffee break. Oh why time run that fast. I have so many things to do. I hope we can really finish the orders tonight. I receive another orders today. How can I ever make the time run slower? Haha. Anyway, this is what usually happens when a person is super busy. Happy mylotting everyone and take care!

Lade, when we are too busy with our works, we won't realized the time passes very fast. That's what i everyday experienced whenever i am getting busy with my daily works. How i wish the time is much longer, so able to complete more many things in a day. Hope you manage to complete your orders and send them out soon. Happy earning, friend...

Yeah, the time runs fast. Most especially when I do crocheting. I am finishing orders in between work during break time. I am almost done with the orders. Thanks for the response.

time runs so fast when we are busy but when you are just sitting around waiting and doing nothing, you will realize that time can be slow. i wait for my daughter in school for 2 hours..when i go out and about i can realize that time can be so fast. when i look at my watch,..it's almost their dismissal but when i just sit and wait there i realize time can go slow..

sadly time does go really fast and that is why we need to enjoy every moment, even when we are at work.

That's true. We can't take back time once lost so better make the most out of it. Thanks for the response.

Fro busy people time is too fast while for idle ones it runs too slow. I am busy as a bee and indeed time passes like a swift wind to me. It is too short indeed. Time is precious so I don't have any intention of wasting it. I have to take advantage of every tick of the hour to assure that it is spent wisely and productively. But I wonder why there are some folks who waste time. Every weekend, I visit my ancestral home and on my way I could see some familiar folks just standing-by doing nothing. They are either just standing and staring at passers-by or just sitting and chatting as if they have nothing to do. I always ask myself how could they do that? Don't they have anything to do inside their house? Even if it is weekend and they need not go to work...why do they waste their time that way? To me, weekend is the busiest time even. At home, I have garden and pets to tend, lots of household chores, and other related tasks that need my attention but how come these folks seem free of any tasks? But even if I am the busiest person, I have no regrets at all. I love to be productive. I can't and I hate idleness more than anything else. OF course I have time for rest and leisure to balance my life but never did I waste time. Time is precious, once it's gone, so I make the most of it.

Me too. I hate to waste time and I don't even just watch TV or browse the net during free time. I always do multi-tasking because every second counts. Thank you and happy mylotting!

Time indeed flies when you are super busy. But what can you do? Just make the best you can for the little time remaining. Or you can always do things overtime.

Hi, also noticed that when we're busy doing something, time really runs so fast. On the other hand, when we're doing nothing and just waiting for the time pass by, I've noticed that time seems to run so slow.

Yea, when you have so many things to do you can't seem to notice the time. And now, it's already 2 in the afternoon. It's like I just woke up and now th day is almost through. Thanks for the response.

Yeah I also notice that time goes fast when you have lots of things you do and you somehow got off hook to what time it is. But when you do not have that much work then time slows down since you keep on looking at the time and you can see that time somehow goes slow.

I always love to keep myself busy during days when I have no work. It's either I will research on something or write about something. You are right, when you don't have something to do, the clock's time seems not moving anymore. Thanks for the response.

Nice quote there. We can never really turn back time that's way I always try to use it wisely. I also spend quality time with my family and my son. He will just be young once and if I never pay attention to him. I will never see him again that way. Thanks for the response.

I can only share an anecdote: "Time is too long for those who wait." The opposite holds true as well. I read this saying in our library in General Santos City.

That is so true. The more you wait, the more it seems to be so long. But if you are so busy, you just wish time will stop. Thanks for sharing!

Yes, you are quite right that time runs so fast. Especially when we focus on something, time always passes so quickly. Maybe we should make our life moving orderly.

That is what I am being confused of... When you are busy, it seems time flies so fast that you need more to finish what you are doing. But if you are doing nothing, time runs so slow that you wish it will be fast so you can already go home. :)

Haha. That's the irony of life. When you need time, you can't have it easily. Thanks for the response.

Yeah I can relate to that lol! There are two instances when time seems to run so fast: when you're busy doing some serious work, and you're having fun. I guess that's how life really is. We become so oblivious to the time as we are so engrossed with whatever occupies our concentration; whether it's just having some fun or what not. You better stretch out a bit, get a breath of fresh air and take that coffee break. You deserve it!

Right. When you are having so much fun, the time flies so fast. Our Sundays are always like that. It's a family day so I love it much but time flies extra fast during that day. Thanks for sharing.

for us adults time runs so fast because we have a lot of things to do and we have a lot of responsibilities. Most of the time a day is not enough to attend to all these things. That Is what I am missing from my childhood. You have no worries you will only play you are not going to worry about finances. At that time I always say it's gonna be a long wait again for Christmas, my birthday, my mom's birthday. Well that's life. I just hope that even we are too busy with work or household chores we should always take time to pray and give thanks to the Lord as He is our Father and source of everything. Also don't forget to spend quality time for the Family as they are the reason why we are working so hard.

I missed being a carefree child too. But this is life, we must grow old. Yeah, you are absolutely right. At the end of the day, giving time to thank the Lord is very important. Thank you for sharing!

I love being busy and I make sure that every action I make counts for the best because time is more precious than money and jewelry, once it's lost, you can never have it back. We must learn how to manage our time very well, we must make sure that our time each day is well spent, for GOD, for family, for job and business, for something worth earning, for ourselves and others.. we must make every second counts.. Have a nice day!!!

That's right. Time is gold and like you I don't want to waste my time. I use my free time wisely. It's I am working online or I am doing crafts for selling. Thanks for the response.

Time surely runs fast for people who are really into what they are doing and enjoying it. On the other hand, time is too slow for those who are not enjoying the moment, irritated or bored on the things that they are doing and feeling miserable doing so.

I agree with you. That's why I find time running so fast now because I have so many things to do and accomplish. Thanks for the response.

when I was in school, i remember I used to wait for the Christmas and new years breaks. it used to be 8 weeks holidays then and it seemed to be so far and it took so much time for the year to end. But now how the last 10 christmas and new year passed I am shocked. It has passed like a flash. Time is become fast for sure and when you are busy then then you notice it more. It is written in the bible that as we near the end days, time will fly and I can see it. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

I love being busy at work so it feel like time is flying by. That is why i usually request to work the busiest days of the week. My managers think I am a real go-getter because of it too. I hate days when it is slow because I feel like I am there forever and the day is never going to end.
