I was walking by the neighbors new fence. They got a really nice fake wood painted white plastic with plastic posts and crossbeams. I thought of all the time they save having removed the old wood.
Remembering the time and attention that Tom Sawyer was avoiding by having his friends pay him for the "enjoyment" of painting the fence, I wondered what my neighbor was doing with those hours not painting. What was he giving his new additional time and attention to?
But he's not alone. When we use appliances, do we realize we've saved time and attention? Do we take a moment to realize that we've gained moments? Where do we pay attention and where do we take our time?
Watch where you put your time and there your heart lies.
