Time Is Fickle

Time is fickle.

You know what I mean.

You’re sitting at your job on the day before you start your vacation. It’s not an 8-hour day. It’s an 18-hour day.

And that 2 week Alaskan cruise? That took about 3 days.

Do you remember when your child was a baby? And now they’re headed off to college. Or maybe they’re putting their own baby into your arms.

How did that happen?

We all know time is actually a constant. It doesn’t go faster when we’re on vacation and slower when we’re working.

I’m coming up on a milestone birthday, and I’m wondering where the time has gone. I look back and I think Poof! the time has flown. But other times I look back and wonder how I’m not 20 years older because it’s gone so slow.

How much more time do I have? I have no idea. But I know it’ll go by with the same speed as the past years have gone by.

But maybe I’ve learned to enjoy this time a little more. Whether it crawls by or speeds past.
