Companionship

We've all had those moments when we were alone, trying to finish a task or just get yourself motivated to do that task.

And then time just stands still. Your next appointment just isn't coming any sooner and the slowness of time is starting to get to you. You wish for things to hurry up, like your professor to just end class, a race to just come to a close.

BUT then there are those same situations shared with a friend or someone close. It's those moments when time just flies! You don't even notice how an hour has passed. You begin to wonder how that situation could be ove so quickly.

It's all attitude. The saying "Time flies, when you're having fun" is so true in this context. When was the last time that time seemed like it was at a halt when you were happy and having fun?

For everyone of you reading, I doubt that's ever occurred for you. If so, I am truly sorry to hear that.

So guess getting back to the main point. Today I was out running with one of my friends, now usually I run by myself since I can barely find anyone to go with most of the time. But today was different, the run was nothing out of the ordinary but what was noticeable was as time passed it wasn't as noticeable as when I ran by myself. Actually I glanced at my watch a few times, but because I was with my buddy, the registering of 30 minutes was only that 30 minutes had passed and that we should be around mile 4. I wasn't thinking "ughh gosh 30 minutes how much longer to go". That thought never even crossed my mind.

So everything coming to a point, guess what I'm trying to say is value your companionship with the people around you. Your friendships arise from there and with that a renewal of attitude surfaces. From there any old menial task becomes easy and less notice on time spent on it becomes realized.

All that with just a friend to uplift an attitude.
