Time for a time rant (with a touch of grief)28 total reviews
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
What a rant that was! I know exactly what you mean, I've been through it too many times, and in the end they group together and my whole life was taken up with the grief and the memories that never went away. I read you other reviews and Dolly gave some good advice. I know she has been there too. We should all try to live for the day, as you say very well, it's not for keeps, our time will be up and that will be the end of it. We can't waste what we have left. Now it's putting those words into action. I must let my loved ones know I don't want them grieving endlessly for me. They must live their lives too. Good luck in the contest. :) Sandra xx

Your words are inspiring, thank you <3
Comment from Wayne Fowler
I'm so glad you are feeling better. I was beginning to worry. Strike that. I was worrying. (Where do I need to go in order to catch you from a bad fall? - like worrying)
They're gone. Times up. - (Time's)
If in fact you are not really feeling better, you 'rant' indicates that you might benefit by talking to a professional.
Wishing you the best.

Entirely possible. Thank you for the heads up on that error, as well as your... feedback?
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
This is an in-depth write about time, how we use it and how we view it, past present and future. Time is one of those things we can't quite put our finger on as it is always moving and it is elusive. Grief is in a whole different category and it can certainly steal a lot of our time as we fall into a period of mourning. It affects everyone differently and when we are going through it we can feel torn to shreds by its sorrow. When time is running out we feel a sense of urgency to get things done and in doing so we miss out on those precious moments that make time enjoyable. I have learned over time that the now is the only time worth any thought. The past has gone and the future is unknown to us. All we have is now. I enjoyed your analysis here and I hope you come to terms with your grief and don't waste too much time on it as we are old before we know it, love Dolly x

Comment from Bill Schott
This rant shows the readers something that is so obvious yet subtle as we deal with our lives. The identification of time, which gets stamped on people and occurrences, interferes with our evaluation of people and events.

Well said! A hypocritical game of Russian roulette. Thanks so much for your terrific comment and the stars!
Comment from Julcia
Phew. I enjoyed reading and rereading your wonderful rant, a serious presentation concerning your experiences with grief and loss. You write of your
"shattered heart and permanent scars". You have unending pain
in a way that appears to be
appropriate to be sung. Thank you
.

Comment from Ben Colder
I suppose we humans can rant about anything. You chose time. I must say there was a time when daylight saving time was needed but today with modern inventions, why? I hope you do well in the contest.

This was well written rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and Flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
...
My Complete Synopsis:
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly.
Thanks for the Time Travel
HG Wells and good luck with your contest entry.

Comment from royowen
Yes, I've written a number of items concerning time. It is both the nemesis and mocker of all living creatures, firstly we don't know how much we have, perhaps if terminally ill, but even then they can be wrong in the estimate, and I've known people healed of normally fatal diseases. I think time is a testing, a preparation, but then, that's another story, but yes, lost one's, and grief, well... beautifully written, bless you, Roy
