We never have enough, yet we waste it. We hurry up to wait. We watch the clock, and cherish our time off.
Maybe you’re reconsidering your relationship with social media or time-wasters. Maybe you want to shed your FOMO (fear of missing out), the modern form of keeping up with the Joneses.
We can all reconsider the resource of time and how we value it.

“Chrolo combines futuristic 3D-printing technology with the historic romanticism of the hourglass for a refreshing take on the age-old timekeeping tradition.”
“Since you can’t tell the exact time on this one, only estimate, it’s the perfect way to watch time tick by—while reading, lounging or listening.”

“When we immerse into the moment we become our best selves and feel the oneness of all things. When we feel one with everything we naturally try to better the world, and ourselves. Our vision is to bring more oneness into the world by reminding it of the present of the present.“
