Love your last line!!! And appreciate your insights. Yes! The older I get I see our fragile our physical life on Earth is and I am thinking more and more about my Eternal Life. I guess trying to prepare myself for what comes next, my Encounter with my Creator!!!

Amy turns 50 today and we were talking about that exact passage of time. The first day of school and the last day of school and summer recess. Time wqs different back then seemed endless and the desire to be grown up shadowed any thoughts of our own mortality growing closer. I am racing the clock everyday to seize fhe moment bc in the end that is all we have when we lay down to sleep..... the memories we make. I always feel like i am running out of time.

I agree, "the desire to be grown up shadowed any thoughts of our own mortality growing closer"

When I was growing up I always wanted to be older and was frequently annoyed by the fact that I never seemed to look my age!
