How to use Time?

This is a question...

I'm scanning the last 15 years of notes, drawings, poems, essays, maths, music in typically disorganised scaps of paper into the computer.

I have been brought to remember who I was during the days that I wrote some of this. Some of it is beautiful and I know today I do not have that inspiration.

So I am left with the usual melancholy for times gone by. Altho, I'm less sensitive, harder and generally not as sentimenta as I was, i'm still left with this question... how are we to spend time.

I can only guess right now that there is no rule. Sometimes we will spend today thinking of yesterday, sometimes thinking of tomorrow and sometimes just being and doing today.

These clearly overlap. A lot of living is done so that we will have memories and stories for tomorrow. Some criticise the spending of today thinking about yesterday (which has gone) but then do things today for enjoyment tomorrow (which is not here).

There is no clear rule as i see it. Time inter-wieves with itself, by the time we know it was today it is yesterday, only when unusual or special events happen do we even take the time to notice today... it a tapestry.
