Wow this week has flown by fast, it seems time is just getting faster these days, even though there is still 24hrs in a day, 7days a week and 365 days a year, why does time fly by? maybe because we let it, maybe because we don't stop to take time to enjoy what today is, so why don't we just take a break and enjoy life for what it is today? what ever we do could wait till later right? its impossible to stop time but not impossible to take a break from it.
These days I try to prepare myself for what the future will hold and I hate doing that because I don't want to, but I do know it must be done.
When my sister Lena and I were with my mom at the hospital and received the heart breaking news from the doctor that our mom was at the end stages of lung cancer, I cried and looked at mom and she just held my hand and said if any thing good could possibly come from this at least we get to say good-bye.
Not everyone who has lost a loved one gets that chance to say good-bye, we did not get that good-bye when my brother died, it was fast it was unexpected, I'm not sure which one is easier.
But today I'll still do what I have to do but I'm taking a break, to enjoy today for what today is, to enjoy yet another phone call with my mom, to enjoy my kids while they are young and still growing up because tomorrow they will be another day bigger and older even if they are 8,5 and 3yrs old.
I'm having a great day and I hope you are too. :-)
