When I was young I never thought
that time was passing by
and that at the speed of light
I never wondered why
I took for granted that every day
even though time did fly
would go on forever and would always be
there until I died.
Now on the other end of life
time has passed me by
more days are gone behind me now
than the future can supply
how much longer that I have
before the call from high
to end this life here on this earth
and I say goodbye.
I think this is how we all feel as we realize we are in our final years. I think the secret is to keep planning for the future even though it is shorter than it once was.
Yes, I agree. Getting depressed about it only speeds on the inevitable. Live one day at a time to its fullest is my motto. Thanks for commenting.
We have to keep our bag packed, because we are leaving this world.

Hope
Love.
Such is the way of the world. Life is temporary at best. Thanks for the comment.
