In Time

The premise of the movie is that in a future where people stop aging at 25, but are engineered to live only one more year, having the means to buy your way out of the situation is a shot at immortal youth. Here, Will Salas finds himself accused of murder and on the run with a hostage - a connection that becomes an important part of the way against the system.
The script starts with the eerie, sobering reminder, and all too familiar words, "We don't have time...we don't have time..." Think if today you had to buy everything with time, instead of bank credit or cash. Coffee costs four minutes. A bus ride costs an hour. A car costs two years. People can give or take time from each other. Just don't run out of time or you will die on the spot. If this were real, would you treasure and spend time more wisely? The real interesting question may be that time really is the currency we live by now, we just fail to see it that way. The simple fact is that you can earn countless piles of cash and gold in this world, but you really cannot buy time. Despite the wealthy in today's world sometimes being able to cheat a few years with better health care, we all are going to die in the same average years. (Written by a reviewer on imdb.com)
In our society we never really take time to live life to its fullest… take time to smell the roses or live every day as if it was our last. We seem to have started to take it for granted that we will wake up each day and be able to do things then.
The characters in this movie lived each day, earning and spending time… scraping to survive. Compare that to our lives today… we have health care, money, and if you are lucky, a job… what’s the one thing you wish you had more of?
If you’re like me, I would say time…
There are 24 hours in a day, now if you break that down, you generally work 8 and sleep 8, leaving you about 8 hours for you… but if you have kids or other commitments with work, friends, and life… it really adds up and you can become overwhelmed and longing for more time.
Instead of saying that “I don’t have time for…. Because…” take the time each day, even if it’s just a few minutes, to smell the roses, count your blessings or even just reflect on how awesome God is… we may think that we have tomorrow and the day after that and the day after that and so on…. But you never know when your last day will be…
James 4:13-15 states: Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.”
Will Salas, the main character stated: “You can do a lot in a day.” If you had only one day left to live, what would you do with the time you had left?
