Give Time a Chance.

I'm growing more conscious of time and aging.
As funny as it sounds, we are getting older. Life is already starting for some, and for some ending; all new chapters, I suppose.

October 25th 2008
...is when life officially hit.
I know we are getting older, and that sounds so obvious, however, you never notice it as a kid.
Things are constantly changing, life is happening.
It is a shock that I never acknowledged it before.

I remember driving home from the hospital knowing that I would not be able to view life the way I had been. After witnessing a friend turn into a mother, I knew. I learned that life is upon us, it has been and it will be, we just haven't given it proper consideration. I know I haven't reached the same age as my friend mentally, because of her transformation, but I think it is so beautiful.
It made me so happy, it was illuminating.
I was so grateful, not only for her and her child, but for what they have both made me recognize.

(life is beautiful)

I'm feeling compassionate about time and change, I'm embracing what's here and now, but I'm not afraid to let go.

This year is almost over, and I'm coming across more anniversaries than ever, which is so awesome. To think that even though we aren't in the same "place" now, it's amazing to be able to be together so long and change together along the way.

It's time for appreciation.
