The Clock is running out.

Pass time or waiting. What is the difference?

Pass time or waiting?

What are we doing here?

From the moment we are born, we start to die.

We do spend a large chunk of time just waiting around: for the bus, dinner, meetings, the red light that won't turn green.

While we wait to die, we pass time with education, getting a job, getting married and having kids, travelling.

All of this is to distract us from the bigger picture of the day we will be dead.

Isn't pass time just a fancy form of waiting?

Don't wait around- get up and accomplish what is on your bucket list before death comes knocking.
