Time Flies...

Time is swift, it races by;

Opportunities are born and die...

Still you wait and will not try

A bird with wings who dares not rise and fly.

Alan Alexander Milne

I have a friend who will appreciate the mystery in this photo...and the wisdom in this poem. It is the motto by which he lives.....chasing the wings of time, grabbing for opportunities, taking chances.....and the advice he gives to friends. Each day I am reminded of the swiftness of time...the shortness of life...the "ought to's" and the "should have done's" and the "if only's" of living. And each day, I rise...and begin again, determined that this will be the day I learn to fly....the day I rise and try! Today....at the end of a misty...foggy....dreary....soul searching kind of day....joy peeked out...and I caught it! Proof that time flies, because I saw it's wings!!!!!
