Time: never waits



We all are in the fast phased life, where we don’t even realize time has flown by. Sometimes I just stop and think back of all the times I have enjoyed and cherished and then I think; where are those days gone!!… What am I doing to myself now?
I have been married for almost two years now.
For a lot of reasons I chose to get back into the fast phased life again though I had an option to relax and enjoy being lazy, read as many books as possible, bake a lot and so on...But, I wanted to get back to working. I like it this way, and of course it’s costing me big time.
I really don’t get time for myself, leave alone reading a book… I already feel I’m missing so much in life …I almost forgot my Dad’s birthday this year. When my sister reminded me I pretended like I remembered…I never used  to forget birthdays… and now I’m like, it’s ok…let it be…I just forgot a Birthday!
Last night I was talking to my husband and suddenly realized that, it’s been really long since I laughed till my stomach aches … And guess what; I’m craving for that,…Oh Yes!...there was a time I hated to laugh so much, I was embarrassed all the time while I went all teary while I laughed…And now I want it…
As I write this I can think of so many other things I’m missed because of my fast phased life... the list will never end
I couldn’t even spend some good time with friends when they were in town!
Priorities have changed… Friends can wait! ... That’s the scene today.
And yes. We are only waiting for the next wedding to happen to meet up.
 So what after the last wedding? We never meet? I don’t know about that;
Whatever it is, we all can wait…but time will never do so. Cribbing doesn’t help.
 I think its high time we stop; think about what we want; do what we want; spend money like millionaires; dance away to glory; read books; eat as much without being weight conscious; get a manicure; color your hair (Who cares if you look like a peacock); plan a holiday… And just laugh out loud… till your stomach aches and tears roll down and whatever…..
And along with all that you love to do, hug your loved one so tight every day, like it’s your last time… Someday, only thinking of it will put a smile on your face
