Life marches on March 1, 2006
Posted by spacemom in : Nance , 2 commentsI am always amazed by the passage of time. Today I was dropping Luna off at daycare when I thought about how much things have changed in the last two years. Sometimes I feel like time moves too slowly, but other times, life moves too fast.
I am not sure where I am right now with respect to time. I am still young, 34 going on 35 soon. I am in reasonable physical shape for my age, not over weight, getting toned, only 2 daily medicines. I have a great job, a great family. But somewhere, inside, I see time slipping.
Maybe it is when I see my in-laws looking just a little older. Or when I really think about my parents being retired. Or that my nephew turned 15 and my niece turns 7 next week. I never really marked time before I went to college. But now I do.
It is one of those things that I wonder how long we track. Does everything just turn into a blur? Where did the last 20 months go? The ones since Luna was born? Where did the last 3 .75 years go? The ones since Soleil was born?
Today is March 1. A new spring is turning around the corner. I see life moving forward again. It is not a bad thing, but it still amazes me.
And life goes on, whether I am ready for it or not.
