Speed

This image disturbs me on many levels.

Yeah, it really does get faster and faster.  There are more birthdays to remember (or forget).

(Let’s see… when was my son-in-law’s?  Today?  Tomorrow?)

I’m definitely Moving at the Speed of Life.

There are more demands – many of them self-imposed.  I’m at that point in life where I know I can get more done – just sleep an hour less or (my favorite) multi-task.  After all, time’s wasting! I’m smarter now than I’ve ever been, I have lots of unfinished business, and I can sleep when I’m dead.

Right?

Just keep Moving at the Speed of Life.

There are more opportunities or distractions, depending on how you interpret them.  I’m at a point in my life where I am incredibly grateful for all the opportunities I have and, truth be told, a little scared to say no when another one presents itself.  I’m old and scarred enough to recognize there are no guarantees, and still young enough to say yes when the right ones come along.

I only get one of these, and I’m still Moving at the Speed of Life.
