Wonderful post, Robin. We rarely take the time to enjoy our times.

Awesome post, Robin. Love the postcard style. The older I get, the more cognizant of time I am. I still waste time, occasionally, but I know I am choosing to do so. Sometimes I just need to goof off!

Me too, Eliza! Today was kind of a goof off day for me since it is so hot. I needed a goof off day after all the travel we did over the weekend.
Thank you. 🙂 The postcard style keeps me brief and to the point. I should probably use it more often.

Love this. We don’t know how much time we have so we truly must enjoy it every day (even if it is just to sit and “waste” it!)

Thank you, Dale. 🙂 Maybe it’s not a waste at all if we’re intentionally doing it.

And wasn’t Frank looking for another collaboration word with you? 😉

Thank you, Karma. 🙂 And yes, he was. I’m not sure if Frank has covered “time” or not. It might be hard to capture in an image… hmmm…. or not. Just had a few ideas. 😀

Great post. I love the postcard. Time is indeed precious. I feel as if I’ve been chasing it all day. Time to eat my homemade pizza now and have a glass of wine! 🙂

I seem to be best at losing time lately. I didn’t even realize it was Monday. I guess that’s not all bad.

Nope. Not bad at all, Dawn. I like it when I lose time. It usually means I’m very much in the present, and not being pushed around by time and schedules. 🙂

Time is so elusive. I’m still trying to figure out where July went.

July was such a rough month, Carol, that I was glad to see it go. 🙂

I’ve just been on the phone for one and a half hours with my ex-brother in law. My sister divorced him in 1978, but I have never known a time in my life when he wasn’t there, and we always stay in touch. We spoke of our memories of times past, and how we see those remembered days of long ago, now that many years have past and feelings have changed. Time stands still when I speak with my “brother”, his voice hasn’t changed over the years, and over the phone I don’t see his older form, nor he mine, so time becomes irrelevant. And I treasure the time we spend talking together. How appropriate that today’s postcard ponders time. Thank you for your timing in posting this, Robin. ❤

You’re welcome, Joanne. And thank you for your lovely take on time and how it can stand still and at times, become irrelevant. 🙂

I’ve always loved post cards and discovered a bunch my mom and even my grandmother had saved. Those few words are such snapshots of time. Tiny timely messages that have survived
Great format (and lovely header)
