I wrote this while sitting in an airport about a month ago, and realized I never posted it! It was a bit of rambling, but I may as well let you read it :-)
As a kid, adults are always saying that to you. Enjoy your youth, because soon you’ll be old like me and you won’t know where the time has gone! As a child, you smile, roll your eyes and think “ha, they’re just upset because they’re old”. As I get older, I can’t help but think that I agree! Days go by quickly, weeks go by faster, and after I blink, it’s another new year. I think some of the perception of time flying by is keeping my time filled. I think being busy, working hard, and staying excited about different things in life certainly makes time fly. The saying “time flies when you’re having fun” didn’t come from nowhere. The few days that I don’t have much to do at work, or a weekend day that I have no plans seem to drag on to no end, but the other 99 days out of 100, are gone before I know it.
It’s not really a complaint, but more of an observation. I love my life, and I feel like I’ve been doing as much with my time as I could ever expect. Of course, my personality of trying to be “the best” at everything certainly doesn’t help with taking “me time” and relaxing. I’d much rather work on doing something better than I already do. It doesn’t hurt if I enjoy what I’m doing at the same time. Keeping up with my dancing, and always trying to improve; ensuring I take care of myself, my family, my house, my car, and my job is always a daunting task. Some easier than others. Once in a while, I spend a few days catching up on this and feel incredible the after that. You know, the day you go to a physical, get your teeth cleaned, your oil changed, and then cook dinner for your family – it’s like you spent one day and caught up on everything you wanted to do. I need those days more often, but I think that at this point in my life, I am just not willing to give up the selfish nature of what I like to do already – spend my times dancing and with my friends.
