Friday's Quote: Lucius Annaeus Seneca

"While we are postponing, life speeds by."---Lucius Anneus Seneca

I've been thinking back on the last several years of my life, and while I tried to live my life to the best that I could, I also can't help but also feel that I've postponed so much of it.  I feel as if I've put parts of my life on hold and just sat on the side, watching life pass me by.  Of course, sometimes I'm so dense and slow to realize how much life has passed me by.  

I must admit, I don't have any children living with me, but they are wonderful in bringing me to reality and making me realize how much life has passed me by and left me in the dust.  For example, I look at my nephew and I can't help and realize how much he's grown.  He's almost as tall as I am and his voice has changed.  He's no longer my little Bling Bling with the cherub face, but now a bratty tween.

One of my other goals this year is to stop postponing my life and to live it.  It's about time I started getting involved in my life.

Have you postponed any aspect of your life?

It's never to late to start living your life, now that you have realize it. Some people never realize until they no longer can live, laugh, and love. Good luck.

Put those words into action and "DO". Can't wait for you to start smelling the fresh flowers, to hear the babies cry and whine, and to start talking with other mothers about your personal parenting experiences. Good luck.
