Keeping half an eye on the New Years Day daytime movie (Gone With the Wind) I saw a shot of a sundial inscribed as follows:
DO NOT SQUANDER TIME …THAT IS THE STUFF LIFE IS MADE OF
It sounds great and I have already adopted it as my motto for the year. However I'm not quite certain as to what it means or implies. Less sleeping maybe; less time spent on Sudoku puzzles (oops, I vowed never to blog about them again); less time eating and drinking, or in the pub?
Nah! It means using time to better effect. See more of my friends and family, but not too much more; sleep more deeply; do Sudoku puzzles faster; take food and drink more seriously; and if I've finished work early, then scarper off promptly and make the pub by opening time.
