I remember as a kid the days would DRAG on and on and on... A week seemed like a year at times. Every grown up would sigh and say, "Wait until you are older, the time just flys by".
I always thought to myself that just couldn't be true. I thought I would never be old, never look back and have trouble remembering details, yet here I am. I blink and a month has gone by, a few months, or even a year. I try to remember events that I knew brought great joy and happiness to me and the details are starting to fade. Bits and pieces come to me instead of whole events. I'm trying with all my might to cling to the remaining fragments as best I can, in hopes that I don't forget those too.
While I am sad that I'm losing some of the past to old age, haha, I am very careful to make sure I'm not missing out on the present! Pictures, videos, blogs and facebook help me to keep snapshots of my life so if I do forget later on, I can always remind myself.
