Putting Time In Perspective

[Mister L]

This is not intended to make anyone feel insignificant but in this perspective we are only here but for a minute. Nobody is insignificant, we all matter.

kind of puts "I'm having a bad day" in perspective , wouldn't even make these charts

 

so remember this next time someone does something stupid and you are thinking you go inconvenienced  or feel the road rage setting in..

 

we are all significant I agree but what we do and experience changes in significance depending on perspective

 

what upsets me today will be forgotten when viewed from next week or month or even remembered a year from now is what I take from this

 

yes a wife's year long battle with cancer is an eternity when you are in the fight but 5 years from now it will seem so far away now that it is gone and you are living free from it.

 

 Yeah your boss or company really stepped on you about something you did  but next month will it even matter to your then current perspective on life in general , probably not.

 

That guy who cut you off in traffic or difficult customer, think of this, you only had to deal with him for a few seconds, he has to live with himself 24/7

 

 Sorry for the long winded THANKS for this reminder, but it has been "interesting" around my world lately but looking back a year from now should be all good
