It’s quite odd that we hardly talk about time and time value. Lately I have been thinking about time and attempting to gain more perspective (subjectively and objectively) on the concept. I took “time” off from everything I would usually do on a regular day just to think about time and what it means to me. This thought is inspired by a song titled “u played yourself” by Nasty c - the  skit at the end of the song in particular.

“This is a side message to address what may upset the small group of people who haven't come to terms with their reality. People in denial of a truth that could set them free. What Mr. Ivyson is saying is, take all this so-called love that you had devoted in a stranger, and invest it equally between what you see when you imagine your greatest self and what you see when you look in the mirror. And he 100% guarantees you, you will find gold. But don't forget: you still played yourself. Strings and Bling”

I’ve always known that time is valuable. Time can be viewed as a commodity - it has economic/monetary value. After a very intense pondering session I realized we all have time but no one knows their exact amount. Time can either be invested or spent just like money. In fact, time has a lot of similarities with money. Every action that we take in life is funded and endorsed by time. How does one know when one has made a bad investment?

The purpose of an investment is to receive a benefit/profit from endowing a someone or something with a quantity. Relations are investments - we put in time and effort into relationships to benefit. We all want encounters and interactions that are friutful to us. The reality of dating relations is that there will be more than one person investing time and effort to a particular person. Everyone has a number of people investing or willing to invest time and effort toward them. In essence, we all have options; we are an option to someone but no one wants to be an option. A liability we all unintentionally volunteer for.

With all the possibilities of finding gold within oneself in consideration, it will all mean nothing if I don’t have someone to share the glory with - that thought gives the possibility of becoming a casualty significance. “All is fair in love and war.”
