Taunting Time

Tomorrow Mike & I head out for our time away from Calgary.

When I was younger and I used to travel I always remember packing weeks in advance, and getting really excited and anxious prior to the trip. Maybe it's my current schedule, or maybe its what preoccupies my mind lately, but this trip has not at all been this way. In all honesty I haven't had the time to do a countdown. The week flew by and I skipped days in between.

Time has always been a mystery to me. Why does it seem to go by so slow at some times and so fast I don't even seem to notice at times? Why does it seem to disappear whenever I'm not looking at it? Why does it go by so slowly when I'm staring at it? This year I've worked to try to free more time for thought and reflection. I've realized how important visualization is in the process of manifestation and I strive to complete tasks that allow me to visualize whilst doing something physical (with my hands). Perhaps this is why I am so attracted to sewing. I am able to create & visualize in a corresponding fashion. I believe multi-tasking is a gift, as I see many, constantly, who are unable to do it. My least favorite place to see people multitasking when there is visual proof that they cannot is on the road, driving. The clear reason I do not like this is because this tactic literally puts lives in jeopardy. If you can't chew gum & walk, you shouldn't try to talk on the phone whilst you drive. This is my logic.

My year in Calgary has disappeared in front of me. I look back and everything feels like yesterday. The content still feels new. The connections still feel new. There used to be a time I thought a year was a long time. What caused that feeling to change? Is there a way that I can utilize my time well and still have more of it than I need? Is this an illusion? Who can I look to as an inspiration on time-management in life?

In search of understanding, I head to youtube and start to research time. I've been bogged in the research department lately as I've found myself very fascinated with many diverse subjects pertaining to paganism, group religions new and old, the string theory, the theory of relativity, and more. I figure I cannot formulate my own opinion until I know what is offered within the content. I'm excited to research time as I have the feeling I may find lots of feedback. Often when researching religions & beliefs there are mixed feelings and content because the beliefs are constantly evolving and being altered in a sense. I believe there is more consistency in time, and I'm hoping that means there's more to learn about.

For starters, I found this video very interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYZQxMowBsw

Yesterday Neveen Dominic was able to pop over for a brie & efficient fitting. I had spent the past two weeks working on her exclusive Neveen gown for an upcoming event she will be attending. Neveen is a huge inspiration to me, as well as a quickly rising socialite. I appreciate her sense of self, and her understanding of her capabilities and impact. She also slipped into a few other gowns I made, which both fit her magically. She looked like a dream in the gala gowns and I am absolutely ecstatic to see her make her presence known as she attends countless events, sharing her identity and product with the world.
