Four Minutes

4 minutes …

left on the timer.

It isn’t much time to wait.

Perhaps I can scroll, or play, or wile them away as I wait.

These are choices I have been known to make, and will undoubtedly make again.

Other choices are:

to read an article, document, or a few pages of my book,

to play with ideas, or possibilities,

to nut out a pressing problem,

to get lost in thoughts,

to reach out and connect with someone,

to jot down some words, or perhaps fully-formed sentences,

to observe the people and nature around me,

and more.

Four minutes is enough time to provide us with a choice.

I’m curious, what do you choose?
