He is suggesting that we ought to not be weighed down by the constraints of time, but rather, we need to live our lives gently and with a sense of grace.

This metaphor motivates us to be conscious of today moment and to take pleasure in the appeal of life. It likewise encourages us to be versatile and to accept the modifications that feature time.
