Reflection


Life rushes by so quickly
Often I find myself busy busy
Peering into the past
Trying to record, to document
Preparing for the future
Trying to be ready for the coming
Memories are priceless
Anticipation is good
But what of the present?

sometimes i wonder if we don't live in the present enough...i am often thinking of what needs to be done, etc etc and wonder if i miss the now!?

I think that is often true...too much planning ahead or looking back. The present is a gift for sure. Thanks Christina for this reminder.

Yes - it's hard to balance. I try to "freeze" some of those special mommy moments in my brain without rushing off for a camera or notebook!
