The sand in the hourglass runs from one compartment to the other, marking the passage of moments with something constant and tangible. If you watch the flowing sand, you might see time itself riding the granules. Contrary to popular opinion, time is not an old white-haired man, but a laughing child. And time sings. Vera Nazarian
About This Quote

We all have a sense that our lives don’t fit together in the way that they should. We think of time as a way to measure the pace at which we are living our lives. We really aren’t sure how long we have until our lives are over, but we are sure that life is passing us by at a great speed. This quotation suggests that the one thing that makes life worth living is doing things you enjoy.

It can be something as simple as taking out the garbage when it needs to be done, or taking time to enjoy a good laugh with your friends. There is no reason for life to be lived like there is an end date.
