Essence

I've heard it said quite often that "time is of the essence."  It's always been said to mean that you are short on time, that you must make the most of it, that you don't have much and it is important to use it as efficiently as possible.  That certainly makes sense to a certain degree.  But it's not always the most accurate of sayings.  The thing I've noticed about people is that they'll get done whatever they really need to get done.

Whether they have an hour to do it or a week, they will almost always succeed in completing that.  Sometimes they will feel like death as a result or have neglected other things and made those deadlines tighter in turn, but things will get done.  Stress and time-crunched deadlines give people the motivation they need to work sometimes, and that's what matters--that it will get done eventually, and it will get done within a reasonable span of time. 

Alright, screw this.  I'm done trying to write a coherent post when I'm just really not in the mood for it.  I'll figure something out eventually.  Or maybe I won't.  The fact remains that I've always got tomorrow to make sense of this or write it or something.  Whatever.  I'm done trying because my mind is in too many places at once.  My apologies again for bad post.
