When time was of a more reasonable length

| No Comments

Whew!  I am scratching my head at how fast this month has gone.  It seems like it has been just days since Thanksgiving instead of weeks. When I was a young girl we always put up our Christmas tree just before my sister's birthday on December 15.  Those next ten days until Christmas morning finally arrived could just as well have been twenty for how slow the time seemed to pass.

Nowadays, I feel like I am hanging onto one end of a rope while Father Time is pulling the other end for all he is worth.  Too much to do and too little time to do it in!!  I must remind myself to breathe more slowly, savor every hour, and try to whittle my to-do list down to what really matters the most...which upon closer examination is not much of it!!

How we spend our days, is of course, how we spend our lives.
