Time


Wow I cannot believe we are 2 months into 2014 already.  Where has 2013 gone?  In fact where have the past few years gone?  As I get older, the faster time flies no matter how many good or troubling times might enter my life.  Or any person’s life for that matter.  Time definitely seems to begin flying at light speed once you hit 30; at least that is how it seems to me.  (Though I turned 30 a couple of years ago.)  When I was in my 20’s, and especially during my teenage years, time c-r-a-w-l-e-d by; I don’t think I really understood the concept of time during childhood.  All I really understood about time then was when school began and ended.  Christmas break was always a special and fun time for me – we had about 2 weeks of school break, and I was incredibly happy.

Now that I am older (though I definitely do not feel my age), I have a better feel and understanding for time and how quickly it passes.  I sometime buttheads with time and its persistence in passing by so quickly because I feel that it needs to give me more, well, time.  ;-)  There is so much I want to do – whether boring, responsible things or having fun life-well-lived experiences – but I find it difficult to get it all accomplished at least in a ‘timely-manner.’  **looks like I am well sticking to my theme.  ;-) **

I know I am not the only one who feels that way; people have probably felt this way since human existence began and will continue on until humans exist no more.  Hoping for more time will never end just like people’s dreams and hopes.

All I can hope for is that I make the most of what time I have – use it wisely, but also have some fun along the way, enjoy myself and make sure that I will be satisfied with all that I have done and accomplished when my time ends.
