Ever heard the phrase "In a New York minute..." People usually say this when referring to an instant. For example, "it was all over in a New York minute." Some people say that a New York minute is the time it takes for a light to turn green and the first NY cab to honk... not very long.
I heard this phrase again Sunday at church during the sermon, and it so perfectly described the way that I've been feeling lately. I continually say that I cannot believe how busy life is or how much I do in a day - how could I have established such a busy life in the few short weeks that I've lived here??
It has been said that what a normal person can do in a minute, a New Yorker can do in an instant... I am slowly learning and adapting to this speed of life.
