I Wish

During my childhood I wished to be old. Well here I am getting older. but my thinking is different know I wish to be young again. It seemed to me that when I was growing up. My birthdays came a lot slower. Now birthdays come and go so fast that I forget how old I am. I sit here trying to remember my childhood memories, but most of them has gotten lost in time. It’s almost like my life has been in a warp zone. My daughter has her own life know. My son is in high school. I can’t even remember some of their years of growing up. I wished I would’ve took the time to enjoy life, but instead I wished it away. I will spend my time that I have left enjoying life. I will also wish for time to go slow, since its to late to be young again.
