march to the time~

2 weeks ago I boarded this ship:

In 2 more weeks we will be half way through yet another month.

~~~~~~

Earlier today I ate Birthday cake

to celebrate the 9 years I've been blessed with this guy:

{Happy Birthday Ben}

In about 9 more years, he may be leaving home and living out his own moments.

~~~~

In approximately 7 hours I will go to sleep.

If I'm blessed with one more day, I will wake up 7 hours later to begin yet another one and fill it with moments.

~~~~~~

It's something how time marches on.

And we have to march along with it regardless if we like the idea or not.

(just like I had to leave that ship ---even though i would have been quite 

content to cruise around on it one more week:)

~~~~~~~~

Love these lyrics......

This time around is the only time you get
Like an hour glass that can't never be turned again
Once it's done, all you are is who you've been
So sink or swim
I'm diving in
This time around
This time around
Gonna love with all my heart
Do my best not to finish where I start
No regrets
Set my coarse among the stars
No looking back
No pointing back
This time around
Each waking moment's what you make it
Don't let a minute pass you by
This is the only chance
So take it
All you have to do is spread your wings and fly
This time around
