the eleventh hour

TOO MANY things happen at this time.

From my days as a student, I remember countless papers being written at this time. A lot of times it was procrastination. BUT, more times than the former excuse, it was because I just couldn't think of anything to write. I've conceded to the fact that I'm a terrible writer. Folks say practice makes perfect, hence more reasons for me to blog. Although, I don't conform to "regular" writing formats. Oh, well.

From my on and off work experience in the food industry, this hour sucks. Not gonna attempt to recount any stories. There are COUNTLESS. I think the front and back of the house staff of any food establishment can commiserate with me on this.

In more recent years, I've come to realize this is the time that really counts. This is the time when all that was supposedly naught comes booming into fruition. This is the time when something finally gives way. This is the time when all else has failed miserably, that ONE thing pulls us through.

Much like that final hour when He breathed His last. When all thought that His death was in vain, it was than that victory was achieved.

I'm not saying to procrastinate. Far from it, dear reader! I'm just saying be optimistic about the eleventh hour because...the end is near.
