Life is so amazing and it goes by fast!!
Life is so beautiful!! And yet from early on we are so eager to grow up fast! Do everything fast! Complaining about all that needs to be done! Being told by parents! Fix your bed, clean your room, take a shower, brush your teeth, go to school, do your homework, get to bed, and do it all over again, we can’t wait and grow up, do our own thing!! Just to realize how hard being an adult is!! And we wish we would of enjoyed our childhood, adolescence much longer!! Adulthood goes by fast too! And we spend so much time trying to figure out who we are, what are we gonna do and be!! For the most part we get to a place of contentment! With family and friends of our own, when we are blessed! Hopefully we are doing what we love, for real! Just to realize we may be tired, and time is of the essence! Maybe having regrets on the opportunities we missed out on, being afraid of what people will say if we go after our dreams!! Did we smell the roses long enough!! Did we have that coffee? Did we take the trips we so much wanted? Did we eat the cake!! If we left today could we say: I lived the life I always wanted? Will we leave the legacy of integrity? Lots to think about!! I just came from the memorial of a spiritual sister I met 44 years ago!! She was 96 at her passing!! She lived a beautiful life!! And it’s got me to think, there’s no time to waste!! There’s no time to hate, or be mad! Or have the fear of what we really want to do!! There’s a scripture I love so much! Eclesiastés 7:1: A good name is better than oil! And the day of death is better than the day of birth!! Making a beautiful name for yourself is better than all the money in the world!! How will we be remembered? I hope when is my time, all that knew me will be able to say: she made a difference in my life, her light enlightened my path, she was there for me!! She was a good one! I always do my best! And from here on out!! I will continue to do that with a lot more Gustó!!!
