In The Blink Of an Eye

In the blink of an eye life changes.  Life is full of riches that a lot of people never see. We are not talking money, fame, or material wealth. It is the journey one walks and branches out with every footstep. The journey, like a gem, will become faceted through life's phases.  We come into the world with a single starter breath, being cared for and nurtured.

Time seems to move slowly; maturity comes along and our path begins to change. New adventure and love brings our hearts to a warm light that glows beyond the soul.  Our journey becomes a double lane as we encompass relationships and begin to branch out with tiny new souls to nurture and care for.  Our energy is now split into different angles that direct new paths and adventures. Time sets the pace as our footsteps become shorter and slower, relinquishing the youthful part of our journey.  Years add up, days begin to pass quickly, and our journey quietly comes to an end. There is no set expiration date for living on borrowed time, only that last breath from the world that carries you beyond.  

In loving memory of all who have passed forward. May their journeys continue beyond the edge of "If".
