Reflections: Life goes by too fast

by JJJJJ

Created on: November 02, 2009

I cannot believe that autumn already reached us with its beautiful falls of the leaves and time when days are getting shorter and colder.

I looked outside the window and the autumnal sun greeted me in its own mysterious way. Its rays are smiling and playing on the clear sky and only an air plane is making holes through the airspace. Suddenly, I noticed how people are getting in a hurry to somewhere and something around is happening every second.



The time flies so fast that you do not have time to keep up with it. It is true, just yesterday it was summer outside! Well, if to be honest, then just ten years ago, I planned my life. I was imagining who I'll become, how old I'll be when I will get married, how many children I'll have, etc. And if to look into the past! How happy I was finally to go to school, to finish school, to be of legal age, to go to university, to start an independent life. Well, now I have a job, I have home, and I have a family. From Monday to Friday, I am getting up for work, in the evenings I have to prepare supper and clean the house on weekends, two or three times a year - holidays abroad. Great! Day after day, week after a week, year after year, imperceptibly, you're becoming hostage to daily life. Naive, that with age you notice how quickly time flies by and thinking about the future becomes frightening...

The most important in this situation is not to despair! You just must figure out how to get out of this as quickly as possible. Let's say, you need to start your life from a new to feel yourself as a newborn. Find that zest in life, which would induce you to escape from everyday life. Let's see, maybe this is a hobby, a new goal, a new lifestyle? Have fun in your life! Be happy and opened to try new things. Be as curious as you were being a child! Celebrate everyday of your life and don't give up on yourself! Never!

Outside the window flew a plane, somewhere wailed siren. My boring life with its futility... No, today I am positive! Today it will be different because I want to see and know that I have lived this life for a bargain!
