In life, there's one thing about time. It's a complex term which cannot be likened to just a single meaning. It is said to be the inevitable progression into the future with the passing of present events into the past (According to Oxford dictionary).
The term INEVITBALE was made use of because it is a progression that is sure to happen. A progession that cannot be fast-forwarded, rewinded nor paused. A progression that you can't start and neither can you stop. In a very simpler term, it is a progression that is sure to happen and there's nothing that is going to change it, either you want it to or not. That's why with or without you, night will fall and sun will shine again to mark a new day. Winter will come and summer will chase it away.

Time determines a lot of things in life; Birth, death, wealth, poverty, infant, adolescence, immaturity, maturity, progress, happiness, sadness, relationship, age, power, opportunities etc. Everything in this life is determined by time. A lot of proverbs about time explains much more about the significance of time and how it's to be considered in every sector of our lives. Proverbs like "Time tells the truth", "Time never lies", "Time heals" and lots more.

Time is also attached to belief. For example it is believed in some parts of the world that whatever place it is you are at a particular time, or whatever situation it is you found yourself in or whatever it is that happens is happening because it is your time to experience such. Set of babies born at the same minute are definitely not going to sit the same minute, crawl the same minute or walk the same minute. It's so possible that one among them might be crawling while others are walking.
So that baby, crawling while his peers are walking is said to be doing so at his own interval (time), and this is exactly what motivated the article.

It's so of we human beings to not accept anything that comes to us at a particular time, especially when such failed to be in our favour. We're so forgetful that times has it's way of determining what will be and what will not be. It's so typical of us to judge without considering how life works, especially in relation to time.
Just like the example given above, we're meant to live this life at different paces. So expecting or hoping to crawl, walk, run or fly the same time your peers are is just but a fantasy which can only happen as a result of miracle (which has no certainty) or can be said to be almost impossible.
Not having this simple but tangible understanding have turned a lot of people to failure way before failing. An african adage goes "If you watch another man's time to work, you'll end up appearing lazy even with all your hardwork".
It is but wise, safe and healthy to understand and believe everything comes at its time.

So whatever you do, always remember that apart from the fact that "there's time for everything", there's also time for everyone.

Time determines the importance of whatever it is we're doing in life.

A time will come that all this won't matter no more
