What does the passage of time teach us?

"On the one hand, you are eternal soul. And time is meaningless when you are infinite.

On the other hand, you’re living in a human container.
And for your human self, at least during this time on earth, the clock is ticking quickly.

You have seen this happen already: one moment you are young and fresh, the next moment the body has changed. You may pass a mirror, and find yourself staring at a person you do not recognize.

How has this happened so quickly?
How does the body soften and sag and falter?
How have so many years passed with so little accomplished?

We say, time is your friend, even as it is fleeting.

The understanding that time marches toward death pushes you forward toward all the reasons you are here."--Messages from the Divine
