Time, we think there’s loads of it don’t we?
But, once boiled down, we get about 50 Summers to do what we want as we want.
That means no parents telling us where we are going and with reasonable health, wealth and energy.
From about 25 to 75.
Let’s say it’s two weeks per Summer while working and four when not.
That’s a total of 130 weeks of complete, uninhibited freedom. More or less.
130 weeks is only 2.5 years.
If you live until 80 that’s just over 3% of your time on the planet. More for some, less for others.
But in no way an avalanche of time, more a blink of an eye.
How will you be spending your 130 weeks? Depending on your age nearly half of them might be gone.
Are you…..
Booking the trip?
Watching the sun rise and set?
Spending time with those you love?
Telling them how you feel?
Or are you….
Fretting about what awaits when you get back?
Doom scrolling?
Squabbling?
Money, made human.
