buying time is...



buying the earth time,
is buying your children time,
is buying your children’s children time,
is buying your best friend’s child time,
is buying fresh air,
is buying your next breath,
this breath,
and this one,
is investing in the future,
is investing in the next 7 generations,
is investing in the next 18 generations,
is buying the octopus time,
is buying the birds time,
is buying the flamingo time,
is buying the plankton time,
is buying the frog time,
is buying time to evolve,
is buying time to evolve so we don’t have to buy anymore,
so we can stop buying all together,
so we can live with the earth and not steal from her,
so we can design with her, rather than strip her of everything she has,
so we can slow down,
so we can enjoy,
so we can listen,
so we can hear the wind,
smell the soil,
feel the sun,
so we can stop moving so fast,
so we can stop asking what time it is,
if it’s time to go,
time to stop,
time to leave,
time to run,
so we look at the sun and just know,
it’s time to live,
it’s time to be alive,
it’s time to let go of all the things we thought we needed,
all the things we thought we wanted,
and just breathe the breath the trees made for us.
