Hard Time vs Soft Time

Parenting (Part 2)

Hard Time cycle vs Soft Time cycle

Soft Time

Living in the moment is feeling happy and carefree. There are no worries or concerns; no thoughts of past or future, no goal and no purpose. There is just the eternal now. When we're in Soft Time, we might feel intense joy at catching a falling leaf, hearing a child laugh or stroking the mossy bark of a tree and simple things in life that we see past it before. We feel whole, complete and connected. Our mind is peaceful and still. There is no desire to search, to act, to do. Soft Time is 'recreation' in its true sense - become oneness with nature. Once we follow our energy it become easy to move back into action to the next step that's Flow Time.

Flow Time is part of Soft Time

Once your intuitively 'know' what choices to make, or action to take and the timing feels right - we move into the active phase of the Soft Time cycle. When you're in Flow Time, everything seems easy and effortless, no inner conflict, no struggle, no fear or doubt. Living in the moment goal directed (moving towards our Dreams or Visions). Being busy doesn't mean you are in Hard Time. You choose to be busy for a while, being alert to signals from your body or inner self that you need to slow down, take action, simply 'be' for a while; if we ignore these signs, we slip into Hard Time.

Hard Time

Life is a struggle for survival too much to do in too little time, feels empty and meaningless. There is no room for singing and dancing or celebrating even if you were, your heart wouldn't be in it. Forever looking at clock in hurry and pressurized running to catch up with yourself. You are tense unable to relax. You will focus on the past or the future you wouldn't fully be at present. We can kid ourselves that being busy means being valued and 'important' - and we might fear what would happen if we slowed down enough to get in touch with ourselves. Our addictive culture encourages us to fill our lives with trivia, to have more, it gives us no sense of meaning so we buy more and more in the fantasy that if we have enough we will be happy. Enough never feel enough – we try even harder, hurry more, buy more, do more and we will always want more. We feel the urge to relax and have some 'down time' to recover which lead us into 'passive' phase of the Hard Time cycle: Lost Time

Lost Time is part of Hard Time

It often mean watching mindless TV,  Playing computer games, shopping, gossiping with friends, or aimlessly surfing the Internet – Keeping your mind ‘occupied’ so that you can ignore the silent scream of your soul. Trying to ‘recover’ your over-busy life before returning to the treadmill. This is lost time – wasted time which neither restores balance nor gives us any real joy.  Lost time help us to cope with stressful unfulfilling lifestyle or to survive for another week or month or year (just to cope with situations rather need to change). It fails to renew us, yearn us even more to fill ourselves to feel whole again. We tend to look for solution outside searching – through work, shopping, love, sex, religion, TV, sports, drugs, alcohol or just plain busyness.
