Funny yesterday I wasn't feeling myself so opted not to join the rest of the team for football - gave excuse about being tired and all that. My boss, who is quite enthusiastic about the game - he rarely misses - came up with the line 'I wish I was as young as you are...'
It got me thinking - I'm not as young as I used to be! And I've noticed when someone asks me my age honestly at times I have to count again - I feel old! I remember when I was a teen I couldn't wait to be older - now it is the opposite.
Don't Blink
just like that you're six years old and you take a nap and you
Wake up and you're twenty-five and your high school sweetheart becomes your wife
Don't blink
just might miss your babies growin' like mine did
Turning into moms and dads; next thing you know your better half
of fifty years is there in bed
And you're praying God takes you instead
Trust me friend, a hundred years goes faster than you think
So don't Blink
- Kenny Chesney
Told you I've been listening to more country
To create a future, you first must be able to imagine it. I realise that as other beings I am far more skilled at following old patterns than at thinking new thoughts.
