Time changes me
Though I seldom even venture
To look in the mirror and see
How often people tell me
how I've changed.

Time changes me
I guess not all that bad
as they say it's all the better
but one thing I can say is time changes me

Time changes the way I see things
I suppose that the things that once
seemed so trevial and so much full of despair
aren't as all as harsh as they once seemed.
For time changes me.

You see so often the world looks at our beauty
on the outside and that's a unique thing
but the most beautiful is the inside.
Way down deep, how you feel in your soul.

Time changes me
that's quite o.k .
For just as the time changes me
I feel more alive than when I was 20
It's quite refreshing and even more aware
of the way I feel about me.

Time changes me
and time changes you
but that's just life
so let's just live
and grow more beautiful
for all the world to see.

To live each day
is such a gift
though seldom we display
so I'll just make this note
for now.


So often said but oh so true,
beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
So Time changes me
and time changes us all.
But what I want to see is beauty
all around this world,
after all that's what time should change
me and you.
It's about more than looks it's about what we see in each other's hearts.

Rosebud......

      This is truly a great piece of art!
I love the words:

    ...the most beautiful is the inside
       Way down deep, how you feel in
               your soul......

Oh, if we could just remember that in this
image-conscious world......life would be so
much fuller!

     Thank you for your thoughts.......


Hold life with an open hand....leaving it room to grow....

thx sunny, I know what you mean, it is a doggie dog world sometimes but I'm thankful for it just the same.
