Reflections in Time...

Have you ever wanted time to stand still and wait for you to soak up the moment? And before you know, the moment's gone and all you're left with are shards of a mirror that reflect the time gone by…
Every time you venture out to a new place, the overpowering yearning to hold on to the people & the good times, always overshadows the promise of the future. There are times when everything around you is so beautiful, you don't want the memory to fade even from the edges. Times when a song will touch your heart in a way you never imagined, and instances that bring in a deluge of emotions so strong, they threaten to shatter the barricade of your composure. And those small gestures and silly moments make every passing day so special, it leaves you incapable of comprehending the significance each day holds in our life.
As time passes, this yearning becomes so strong, it infuses into you this benumbing fear of losing what you have. Then you reach a point in your life where you realize that life is so wonderful; if you just value what it has to offer, the good times will never leave you. Every second appreciated is a celebration of life. And somewhere along the way you learn to build your roads on today, even though you know that futures have a way of falling down mid-flight. And so, you learn, and you learn, and with every goodbye you learn…
