Second Annual Mad Tea Party.

Late? Late? What are you talking about, you funny little rabbit.

Well:

About this^ of course!
Don't you remember that you were almost the first to sign up when Vanessa invited you? It was May 18th. You were thinking that you would have plenty of time. Remember?

Of course I do. But how is it possible that I don't have anything ready for a blogpost yet?
'Aren't you supposed to be white?' I asked the rabbit to avert him a little.



Look at the flyer; Is that rabbit white?
and look at this:



My dear LiLi and other readers:
It doesn't matter what color the rabbit is, the story remains the same. I reveal another secret: neither should it matter to you my friends what color anybody has.

Now look at this again:

Yes, we shall be too late, Vanessa and the others will be sooo disappointed..the rabbit took his little hanky:


Whoooohoooo that poor Vanessa!

'Ah don't be silly', I replied, 'Vanessa is still asleep. We are having Saturday, but she is still having a groovy Friday Night.'

Don't you know:



Ah! What about time?

Time is a concept. It is hard to realize, but we people invented time. Before the 12th century the medieval western person didn't know the clock. Of course there was a concept of time; Every day a new day started, followed by an afternoon, an evening, a night. The seasons were following each other back then too. After 4 seasons it all started again. Time was like a circle. Life was a cycle. It was after inventing a clock that the time concept became linear: 9 pm today never comes back.

Time is an agreement: we have decided that it is 8.00 am over here, the minute I'm writing this down. It is 11.00 pm on the previous day, where Vanessa lives. That's an agreement too.

What I want to say is that you don't have to be in a rush all the time. Time traveling is possible nowadays; I can hop on a plane and save time, but you really don't save time that way. Just spend your time wise. As you think is wise. Time was invented to make life easier, to make it possible to make appointments. Don't let that agreement take over your life. Like they do at the Mad Hatters tea party, where it is always tea time, because the clock says so.
Relax!

Let's spend some precious Time at the other guests at Vanessa's Mad Tea Party.

'Take some more tea!'

Sorry, geen Nederlandse vertaling dit keer; geen TIJD! hihihi.
