There is enough time?

Whenever an illusion of such thinking creeps up!

Stop thyself...

For when one thinks there's time to spare,
That time can easily be spared away.
Do we really have time to spare... for facebook for example.
When we are 1 hour away from an important examination?
How about if we're 1.1 hours away?
5 hours?
10?
100?

Conversely. How much preparation is enough for an important exam?
100?
10?
5?
1.1?

There is no such thing as too much time. One will only know whether our preparations should have been longer or shorter after the actual exam itself.

At least, if one fails an examination, sometimes there's the opportunity to retake it.

But what if the important task is life itself?

How much time does one need in life, to succeed in life? (Effectively how long does one need to live?)

Do we really have enough time in life? To achieve the really important things? Our life's work?

How much time will we need?
30 years? 20 years? 10 years? 1 year?
a month?
a day?

There may not be enough time...
