How soon a Lifetime

A lifetime can seem awfully long to most of us and in terms of remembering the experiences we gather in the length of one, well a lifetime may even see an eternity. One's life can even seem short, always in need of more time. Your life can be as fruitful as you want it to be or can be as dull if you so choose it. My point is this; We can never take back lost time. Whatever time is given to us is it, and how we spend it and choose to live this lifetime is entirely up to us.

There was a time when you lived your childhood memories, always full of laughter and memories of home and summer vacations. Then you were a teenager full of vibrant youth and unrestrained energy, always eager to try something new. Then adulthood came up and an expectant you evolved, wanting to take on the world, to change it as you see fit.

When you start nearing the later part of your life you tend to take things slower, be more cautious, and always wary of uncertainties. Then the time comes when you will have to face what we will all face, a time to have a final glimpse of our lives AND WE WILL WONDER where our life had been or that if we had done things differently we certainly would have had a better life. Maybe we'll regret some things but on the whole we will feel blessed.

When you surround yourself with people who love you and more importantly, you love back you will find a life richer in meaning. Yes, a lifetime is indeed too short and it can pass by in a breath's time but the moments which comprise your life define who you are. Take the time to do more of these things and you will find yourself happier and more content with your life.

There really is no secret to a long and happy life. It is there if you want it and it can be yours if you strive for it. Do take care of yourselves. Until the next post.
