Time - Friend or Foe?

We have all heard of the expressions of time: time is money, living on borrowed time, time is of the essence...time time time.  We have also heard from scientists, spiritual seekers and metaphysicist on how time is only a concept of this reality and that it represents the dualistic world which we are all in.  It is easy to understand this intellectually but our daily lives are indeed very often dictated by what is going on round the clock.  From a student taking his first test in school to an athlete trying to break his record, we are always trying to work within the limits of time, or more so, to beat it.  If not, why are people trying so hard to rejuvenate themselves and get hung up on the age-reversal process?

This is all fine when time is your ally and you are using it as means to progress or improve yourself.  However, it may not work so well when you crucify yourselves between two thieves - regrets for the past and worries of the future.  In this mundane world of ours, time is simply a tool without which we can have no human advancement.  But we have to believe that we are always at the right time at the right place with the right people, though it may not seem so at times.  When you can truly be in the here and now, and only in the here and now, joy is natural pheneonomen.   

Trust.
