Tricks

Its funny how things happen. First you anticipate them, the day finally comes, your in the moment lost in it... and then all the sudden its over, and your looking back at that moment which felt like it was a ETERNITY away. Wondering, how it could possibly already have come and gone.

Do we even have time to blink our eyes?

Life is funny in that way. When you want something it feels like FOREVER until you get it. (ordering that MUST HAVE pair of shoes off the Internet and RUSHING home everyday to see if they are there yet). But once it happens, it is just over. Its almost surreal if you think about it... The greatest moments of life fly by WAY to fast. And the ones where your waiting for those moments seem to drag on and on.

Don't you hate that?

I wish that life wasn't on such a fast track. I wish that I could relive every one of those amazing moments that went by way to fast.

Example:
When your at work... or in a math lecture, two hours feels like; ten days.
But when your laying out on the beach drinking a pina colada, two hours feels like; 20 minutes.
Is time just messing with us?
Because its NOT fair.

I wish that we didn't have to spend 8 hours a day working. I do wish that we could spend 8 hours in a day LIVING. Crazy thought huh? I feel like a lot of us are starting to forget what LIVING actually means.

Experiencing that amazing feeling of surreal happiness. That anticipation to go on a trip, or to see a amazing concert, going on that much needed island getaway, and spending time with the people that you love.

WHY does time take those things away from us SO fast... but makes us wait for them for SO long? My theory is that time plays this trick on us in order to teach us to appreciate those special moments just a little bit more.

  1. SO true. Exactly what I feel right now. This time is slipping between my fingers like grains of sand and I have NO way of stopping it or slowing it down. We just have to appreciate the time we DO have no matter how great or small, and make the small moments count. Thanks for putting it all into words, love it and love YOU!
