Just For A Minute

This reflection is mindfully and timefully exactly one minute long. Every minute that passes us by is a gift. What we do with these gifts can make a difference in our world. How do you plan to use yours?

For the next minute, Consider this. In 60 seconds, The Earth under your feet moves about 17 miles. The Earth itself moves over 1, 000 miles in its orbit around the Sun. Over 250 newborns take their first breath. And over 100 people take their last. So as the clock ticks, Everything is changing. Yet many are standing still. And some are even going backwards. Yet every single minute that passes us by is a gift. The gift of doing something different. Like the gift of us bestowing a random act of kindness. Or the gift of doing nothing at all. Like the gift of tuning in to the in and the out breath. And allowing what is out there to come in. So what do you plan between the next tickings of the clock?

wow all of that happens in one minute. That's amazing. Thank you for sharing this with us Namaste.

Love your posts! This one was timely for me. Replied to a desperate person on FACEBOOK wanting to connect with someone locally about a serious health condition, rested heaps while a red warning hit NZ....climate change 🙄...change is BIG in our world at the moment 🪖⛽️🌀😥🫂

One of my absolute favourites for reminding me of the poignancy of each and every minute.

So powerful. This last year especially I have learned just how precious every moment in my life is. Staying positive, loving, being happy living fully and kindness give me peace. Thanks Tom for such a beautiful reminder of just how important it is to live fully. 💕🙏🏻

I love this! Time is passing us by from the moment we are born. How we choose to spend those precious moments are up to us. Thank you for sharing this meaningful message.
