Thinking About The Passing Of Time I’m pondering the passing of time, a novel idea I know. When one grows to an age of understand that time does come to an end, it’s time to wonder if you have spent yours it well. This invisible taking away of life, time becomes so very clear and tangible to the naked eye when the past lays out for you to peer back on realizing just how far you have come. Who of you can admit that as your age climbs that number table you wish things could of been a little different, a little easier, calmer, maybe longer. I admit if I could “only” but it was all a matter of timing and unforeseen occurrences. It’s amazing, I at this moment watching the clock on the wall, cheap as it is and man made at that, can make such a commotion in our lives. Yet try to live with out the darn device and see were it gets you! I am hoping that in the after life time is only but a memory, for the here and now is gauged on nothing but time. Funny thing what can come to mind if you have the time. BY, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |

You know, I have no clocks and calendars! I only count on one thing, the next day! No, seriously, this was very insightful, and I am glad I didn't miss it! Kathleen |
