Give Me Just a Little More Time

Daily writing prompt

Do you need time?

I’m not under any great pressure time wise nowadays, but I’m never bored either. So, I always need time. By the way, I’m not Kylie Minogue😀. But she gave me my post title, so I thought it only fair that I include her 1992 revival of an old Chairmen of the Board song from 1970. I wasn’t familiar with the original when I first heard the song in 1992.

Kylie Minogue – Give Me Just a Little More Time

Time is fascinating. It’s intersting how it can go so slowly when you’re waiting, and it can go much too quickly when you’re enjoying yourself. I also find the runup to Christmas quite fascinating. Time seems to accelerate in the week coming up to Christmas 😀.

My biggest fantasy is to be able to travel back in time. At least, we can do so through our memories and through other people’s memories.

I recently chose a few audiobooks on Audible by Dominic Sandbrook, where he looks back at the UK from the 1970s through to the 1980s. I live in Ireland, but I recognize many of the events from childhood. The books are excellent value because they’re about 30-40 hours long.

And I’m a big fan of all history, particularly church history. I found this nice talk on YouTube about Richard Sibbes, a Puritan. I’d heard the name, but I knew nothing about him. I love the way these random videos pop up on YouTube.

Actually, I need more time for YouTube. There’s so much I want to watch 😀.

Ultimately, we’ll have all the time in the world. Louis Armstrong’s song isn’t a Christian song. It’s a sad song, because it closed the 1969 James Bond film, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, where his wife got killed. They didn’t have all the time in the world.
