Times & Age.

I'm twenty-one years old. 


I realize this isn't old age by any means, but I can't help feeling that my clock is ticking faster than ever. It felt like just yesterday, I was celebrating the new year and welcoming my birthday; now it's the middle of October. I really should have listened to my elders when I was younger. They always said, "Time flies right before your eyes when you're older. Enjoy it now." I have older siblings (the youngest by 11 years) and I can remember always wishing & wanting to be older, so I could hang out with them and do the things they were doing. Now I see that was silly of me. That realization.. It's just another stepping stone in life, right?


I suppose what I'm trying to get at, is that we need to cherish every moment we have left. Instead of sitting and wishing we're in a different time and place: grab hold of this moment and conquer it! I'm really glad to say I'm finally doing just that.
