Round and round it goes

The circle of life goes on and on. Sometimes faster than we would like it to. When you are young it seems like it takes forever for Christmas to get here. But when you get old it seems like time is flying by, way too fast. One minute you got your whole future ahead of you, then all of a sudden you get old. You grew up hearing that when you are old they are your golden years. But when you get old you realize that it is merely fools gold. You realize what the phrase "Don't put off tomorrow what you can do today", really means. It means tomorrow you might be too old to do it so you better do it today. People make a Bucket List of things they want to do one day. But they actually should be doing all they can along the way so they can have a list of things they can reminisc about when they are old. You are only young once. No matter how young you feel when you get old your body will be too wore out for you to forget you are not as young as you used to be. Timing is everything.
