Precious Moments

It seems like everyday the rush is on, moving more and more quickly through life. If ever the phrase,"Stop and smell the roses." could have vast impact on humanbeings it is now. Our world is changing at a rate that soon in our near future the average person wouldn't be able to keep up. What will happen to those of us that can barely keep pace now? I am sadly reminded that as I age the life that I once knew and found comfort in is quickly disappearing all around me. I struggle to understand our technological world that seems to run so fast I can't keep up with our changing world. How funny that so often I have referred to myself as an aging dinosaur, but it never occurred to me that I could actually become one. How wonderful that just when I need a recharging of my soul and spirit, a way to be up lifted and renewed life does that for me. It is the joyous love of my grand girls that reminds me of how wonderful youth really is. That there is a true sweetness and innocence that comes with being young and that with age come wisdom, patience and understanding. These are my precious moments when my girls are with me, loving me for who I am and I return that love from a place far greater than myself. I am moving through my lifetime like the speed of light, yet still I have these breaks, these precious moments to remind me that I am not just a dinosaur, but a very blessed and honored one at that. Precious moments are all any of us have, so for me I have to stop and smell the roses. As I do, I am reminded of the life I have and the value it has for me. For every moment that passes me by there is one more experience that I will have to add to my life's' basket. At the end of my journey I hope that I have more percious moments to carry with me to my eternal life than not. Precious Moments, the love that never dies, the spirit that carries on.
