TIME...

keeping time is a waste
saving time is  a waste of time
checking time is a  a waste of time
wasting time is also a waste.
  time is somewhat irrelevant
Achieving; no matter how long it takes
;Is creating time that cannot be lost
Doing a good deed well done !
is saving created time 
LIVING  it' just the way it is 
Is being in control of time. 

printing in sand is though impossible:
leaving prints in the sands of time is plausible. 
to  look upon the clock is inevitable.
How about, the clock looks upon you? commendable...
