Time for T

Time is Tricky.

Nobody has enough.
Yet we all waste so much of it.

We beg a few moments, pass a few hours, and soon we are on borrowed time.
Once it is gone, it can never be recovered.

And oddly, every year around this time, I find myself wondering where the Time has gone.

It seems just weeks ago that I wrote an intro for "F", and as I invited people to share their posts for their own fifteen minutes of fame, I realized that round fifteen was approaching.  Could I base the next badge, for round fifteen on the concept of fifteen minutes of fame?

How would I portray it in a logo?

How could I create a design that invited people to share their blog, and be, in their own unique way, famous, for the time it takes us to read their post?

Through the Process of Trial and Error, I came up with something I could live with.

So, next round, each week, as you share your blog, you will be enjoying your own moment in the spotlight.

And isn't it about Time?

Time for T

Of course, it goes without saying that my favorite T word is "Troy"

But after that it becomes less clear. 

But one T word I do NOT like is "Time"

Now, owning an herb business, I hear more than my fair share of Time/Thyme jokes.  And I even make a few myself. But although I love Thyme, Time leaves a nasty taste in my mouth.

It makes my hair grey, (what little I have left that is)  gives me wrinkles and creaky joints, and contrary to popular belief, it does NOT heal all ills.

It teases, taunts and torments, then slips away and hides.  I can never find time.  And that is because Time flies, and I do not.

So, Time has been flying along, and it is already time to reveal the logo for the next round, round 14.

But before I do, I just want to explain it a bit, and I confess, I can do it better if I don't focus on T words, so please forgive me in advance.

Now this will be a longer intro than usual, please be patient with me.

The upcoming round is 14, so I wanted to do something that represented the number 14.

Numbers are funny things, because they mean lots of different things to lots of different people.  But the number 14 has some fun symbolism associated with it.

T is for Taking Time

Today,

Take Time.

Take Time to Talk to a friend.

Take Time to Tell a loved one that you love them.

Take Time to Try something New.

Take Time to Thank someone for what they have meant to you.

Take Time to Teach a child.

Take Time to Taste a new food or Trade recipes with an old acquaintance.

Take Time to Touch the Things that matter,

Take Time To Think about Things you never want to lose

Take Time...

Because, when it boils right down to the meaning of life, and to what is really important...

...isn't it about Time?
