Aan die einde van die maand vier ek 23 010 dae op aarde. In kalender jare is dit dus 63 jaar. <\/p>\n
Waar is die tyd heen? Dit het gevlieg!<\/p>\n
Ek hoor anderdag iemand s\u00ea daar is \u2019n hormoon wat afgeskei word wanneer mens jonk is wat jou laat voel dat tyd stadig verbygaan. <\/p>\n
Dit verminder glo met die jare en dan voel dit of die tyd vinnig verbygaan. <\/p>\n
Oor die waarheid en juistheid daarvan kan ek nie sweer nie, maar ek kan dit glo.<\/p>\n
As mens terug kyk op die afgelope week, of selfs saans in die katel dink aan die dag wat verby is, dan wonder jy soms wat het jy met die beskikbare ure gemaak. <\/p>\n
Was dit produktief, het jy iets geskep wat jy kan wys, het jy die tyd omgeslaap, of dalk al die tyd op sosiale media deurgebring, gelees, of hoe?<\/p>\n
Daar is \u2019n algemene gevoel dat tyd gou verbygaan as jy pret het, en dat dit andersyds so stadig kan loop as jy trauma ervaar of werk. <\/p>\n
In my eie verlede toe ek maande lank in die hospitaal was na \u2019n motorongeluk, het dit behoorlik gevoel of die tyd stilgestaan het. Van een operasie tot die dokter se uitspraak oor sukses al dan nie was \u2019n ewigheid.<\/p>\n
Nou dink ek weer innig aan vriendin, skryfster Annelie Botes, wie se been die week geamputeer is, en kunstenaar vriendin Anita van Tonder wie se lewe nou afgemeet is in stukke van een chemo behadeling na die ander. <\/p>\n
Sy vertel hoe stadig loop tyd wanneer \u2019n drup twee ure lank moet loop, en \u2019n nag wat verbysleep wanneer jy nie kan slaap nie. <\/p>\n
Hoe kan die tyd nie draal as mens in \u2019n verkeersknoop vasgevang is, of vir iemand moet wag nie! <\/p>\n
Die ergste is as jy uitsien na iets \u2013 dan wil die ure en dae nie omgaan nie Maar kuier nou lekker, doen drentelend inkopies of speel \u2019n sport, dan wil dit blyk die minute tik vinniger verby.<\/p>\n
\u2019n Olimpiese atleet sal die waarde van \u2019n millisekonde kan s\u00ea. \u2019n Sekonde het saak gemaak toe jy \u2019n ongeluk vrygespring het, \u2019n minuut het getel toe jy \u2019n bus verpas het.<\/p>\n
\u2019n Dag se arbeid in die son kan lank wees. \u2019n Ma met \u2019n premature baba besef die waarde van \u2019n maand, en \u2019n student weet hoe lank is \u2019n jaar wat hy moet herhaal.<\/p>\n
Met terugskou besef mens soms dat jy jou tyd gemors op iets, of self op iemand. Dit het egter op die oomblik betekenis gehad. <\/p>\n
Soms is mens nie bewus daarvan dat jy iets vir die laaste keer doen nie, of iemand vir die laaste keer keer sien. Tyd is die kosbaarste kommoditeit, meer waardevol as geld. <\/p>\n
Mens kan dit nie koop nie. <\/p>\n
En tog: Vader Tyd loop altyd dieselfde. Die minute wyser tik altyd dieselfde, en die ure-hand beweeg langsaam op sy tyd.<\/span> <\/p>\n Die onstellende feit is dat tyd aanstap en ons kan dit nie terugkry nie. <\/p>\n Al wat ons het is vandag, nou! Maak die beste daarvan! Gee vandag daai drukkie of kompliment. <\/p>\n M\u00f4re is dalk te laat. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Aan die einde van die maand vier ek 23 010 dae op aarde.
