\\u201cTime is the money of love.\\u201d -Kinky Friedman
\\nI remember reading this quote on a business trip not long after I got married, and it hit home so strongly.
\\nEverything I saw, every meal I ate, I wanted to share with my Wife.
\\nIt wasn\\u2019t the things I was seeing or the food I was eating that I wanted to share with her.
\\nIt was the TIME.
\\nBut the thing is, not all time is of equal value.
\\nJust like not all money is of equal value.
\\nYou can spend money on something that gives nothing back to you and feel like it\\u2019s wasted.
\\nOr you could spend the same money on something that nourishes you and feel that you made a wonderful investment.
\\nSame money. Different intention.
\\nWhen we spend time with those we love, we can be totally present with them and gain cyclical, resonant nourishment.
\\nOr we can be distracted by our phone or preoccupied and wandering mind and come away feeling empty and unnourished.
\\nThe choice is ours.
\\nSo how do you choose to spend your time with the people you love (including yourself)?
