Glad my edits on the graffiti article were helpful. If you want me to look at it again, please feel free to send it on. Your comment on "competing with time" is an interesting way to look at it ... I'll have to see how I can include that in my next articles. Thanks, Dale Hi, Audee. Glad my edits on the graffiti article were helpful.

Your comment on “competing with time” is an interesting way to look at it … I’ll have to see how I can include that in my next articles.

Thanks,

Another book I just picked up that I plan to roll into the discussion is called "The Secret Pulse of Time: Making Sense of Life's Scarcest Commodity" by Stefan Klein. Whereas the Menzies book I discuss above delves into social and cultural elements of time and technology, Klein's book looks at time as individuals experience it. I've only started browsing through it a bit, but Klein discusses such things as how and why we certain experiences feel like productive uses of time, while others feel like wasting time; or, why some experiences of time seem to occur slowly and others occur quickly. I've never read anything quite like it ... you might want to check it out. Thanks again, Dale Jason,

I should check out one of the books your recommend, and I look forward to reading your next post on this subject.

Dale ask a great question in if many today have lost the ability to do nothing and completely detach from things for a bit of recovery. I personally try to follow the 1/3 of my life in rest / recovery, 1/3 in growth and development, and 1/3 in labor / work / battle model, though I typically am more 25%/25%/55%, (yes I do know that is 105%, point prove right) but I am working on it. At least I do get a bit of all three in almost every day though. Anyway, the piece at a Few Good Pens is a work in progress, so be sure to check back for additions and updates.
