Time is on my Mind

I have been thinking a lot about time lately, because another year is almost gone. Each year seems to go by faster and faster. And although, I feel as if I have spent my time wisely this year helping my family members on their individual health journeys, it has gone by much faster than I like. Most of them are probably glad the year has gone by quickly though, because soon they will be able to move forward with their lives. Sadly, for others, they're nearing the end of their life journey. Whatever the individual outcomes or how fast time seemed to pass, I'm glad I took the time to spend with my family this year. And I do cherish this year and what it has meant to my family and me. My calendars are full and so is my heart.

There will be time later on for Etsy and eBay listings, quilting, cross stitching, other arts and crafts, digital creations, and earning money. My family is much more valuable to me than any of those things, and thankfully, my circumstances make it possible for me to be available to them and their needs.

Anyway, I found a few thoughtful quotes on the subject of time and thought you might enjoy reading them as much as I have. You will find those below.

From Thich Nhat Hanh:

Time has much more value than money. Time is life. 

From Benjamin Franklin:

Lost time is never found again.

 Do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of.

From Theophrastus:

 Time is the most valuable thing a man can spend.

From Jim Rohn:

Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money, but you cannot get more time.

From Stephen R. Covey:

 The key is in not spending time, but in investing it.

From Michael Altshuler:

 The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot.

From Roy T. Bennett:

Don't waste your time in anger, regrets, worries, and grudges. Life is too short to be unhappy.

From Dorothy Atwood:

Time is a great storyteller.

From Margaret Peters:

Time has a wonderful way of showing us what really matters.

Thanks for visiting, and have a blessed day.

New Christian T-shirts Designed and Listed on Etsy

I just finished designing a couple of Christian T-shirts and listing them on Etsy. You can read more about these and keep up with new arrivals on my Digital Potpourri Blog. If you have a custom request, you can contact us via Etsy messages . We'll be happy to try to produce a t-shirt to your liking as long as there is nothing profane, vulgar, immoral, licensed, trademarked or involving hate related to the design. One of the tees reads Love Obey Trust with bible books, chapters, and verses that coincide with these words. The other states God Lives Here with "Here" inside a heart shaped from mini hearts. So, basically 2 messages. God Lives and He lives in our hearts. 😇 Thanks for dropping by to read my updates today, Patricia

Finally a Few Nice Days in a Row

I've been waiting and waiting for spring temps to arrive for more than a couple of days without rain. And this is the week! We finally have some color in the yard and on our deck. So, I want to share what my husband, son, and I have been up to for the last few days. First of all, we had our first cookout on Sunday, April 28 to celebrate our younger son's birthday. That officially kicks off spring. I mixed the first batch of hummingbird nectar a couple of weeks ago, hoping the males would take advantage while the females were tending to their nests. As far as we can tell, 1 male has visited twice. Of course, we can't look out the window all of the time. But we do look out frequently. And we hang them in 2 locations that we can see directly from the kitchen windows. The rose bushes started blooming about a week ago, and I finally had time to take pictures of them. I pulled out the grass and weeds that were growing around them a couple of hours after I took the front-facing ...

Tomedes Free Transcription and Translation

Recently, as you know, I’ve transitioned from a career in transcription and data entry to one focused on generating passive income . Throughout this shift, I’ve realized that I still rely on AI transcription services for the writing component of my new business. In previous posts, I mentioned several AI transcription options, and today, I want to highlight Tomedes’ free Transcribing (up to a 10 MB video file) and Translation services.  Tomedes Transcribing and Translation Services Like other free offerings, these services come with certain limitations and may incur additional charges once those limits are exceeded. However, I find their free offers to be comparable to other AI transcription and translation platforms available online. Offering free services showcases Tomedes' confidence in their products. Additionally, providing these free options helps build trust between the company and users, while also giving individuals the opportunity to explore and experience the features o...
