8 seconds is a very short amount of time. There are many things that can be done in 8 seconds; you can drink a glass of water, you can put on your jeans and shirt, you can share a smile. You can swing a golf club and watch you ball fly straight down the fairway, you can change channels numerous times on the TV in 8 seconds. You can take a picture, you can smell the flowers and you can blow a bubble with bubble gum.
And then there are some who earn or loose their pay cheque in 8 seconds. I am talkin' about professional cowboys; bareback riders, steer wrestlers, calf ropers, saddle bronc riders and bull riders.
This Saturday I went to the 90th Falkland Stampede and those boys sure have chosen a hard way to make a livin'!
I am glad I don't have to work as hard as them in 8 seconds however I have been made aware of how I do spend all the "8 seconds" that fill my day.
What have you done with your "8 second" moments?
