Cleaning the car

There is a neighbour, who every Sunday without fail spends maybe 1 1/2 to 2 hours cleaning his car, he cleans every inch, washes, waxes, polishes, even takes the wheels off to clean them more thoroughly. He then spends slightly less time cleaning his bike after.

Others, like me, take their cars to the car wash and spend £10 having them cleaned by someone else, so that they can spend that time doing something else. It’s a choice.

The thing is it is all a choice, but my neighbour may say to himself ‘I could do ‘x’ if only I had more time’.

We can always find time if we really want to. It’s a question of what we choose to make a priority. Every hour of every day is used how we choose to use it.

There is no right or wrong choices, it’s just to realise there is always enough time.

A glimmer

The bottom is a dark place
The bottom is lonely
The bottom is rock bottom
The bottom feels forever
The bottom is a place we all come to
The bottom is an empty jar
The bottom is an ugly scar
Yet there in the dark is a glimmer
A glimmer of light
A glimmer of something
A glimmer of a chance to rise again
Nothing is forever
Nothing is always dark
Never give up
There is always a glimmer of hope
If we choose to believe
There is always someone there
There is a glimmer
And that is all we need
