Time

Time It is apparent to all of us that life is an obstacle in itself. Our goal is to get through all of life’s troubles that are thrown at us and enjoy the good times that come, take nothing for granted and appreciate life itself. We also must focus on the present and forget about the past and future because we cannot change the past, and we are always aware of the fact the future will bring new challenges. The aforementioned thoughts are explained thoroughly in the song, “Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)” by Green Day. There is no way to stop time from passing by, but we can control time rather that it controlling us. In my opinion, Green Day does not provide a good definition of how we should define time. I think that we should manage our time, so that we can control our future rather than the future controlling us. From the first line of the song “Another turning point another fork stuck in the road”(1), we learn that the poem is going to explain the author’s view of time.
