Time
Time is one of those things that we all take for granted. We've got it, then it's gone and we don't know where it went. Garth Brooks sums it up by singing, 'I'm too young to be this dang old.' Where does the time go? I think about my younger years when I didn't leave the house till 9pm and grumbled about being in by 12am because that's when things got really fun. Although I'm still a night owl, going out after dark is not appealing as it once was.
Time is like a river and it will not stop and wait for you. I say this to encourage you to get out there this month and enjoy all the Christmas shows, events and get togethers. There is probably no busier month in the year so don't stay home and miss out. Don't end the year with 'I coulda, shoulda, woulda' gone but I just didn't and the opportunity is now gone.
You are so right! We will never pass this exact way again and the opportunity at hand will never be available to us again. As we get older, we seem to realize just how quickly time gets away. I have heard it said, that there are a few things one can never get back....the spoken word, the thrown stone, time spent, etc., etc. I am thankful I still have the health and desire to do things that I know will make sweet memories. Love you, my friend.....T.
ReplyDeleteTime is wasted on the young people, they don't value it, we should have our youth in the latter years. Ole Dad
