As we age we are more conscious of time and realise that is something we have no control over.

No control over time... but we should do our best with what we have...

Ouch! It’s very easy to forget people these days, especially in the age of the Internet. Or we are frigid to their feelings, and just walk all over them.Or we ignore them. And one day, we find that they’re gone. And the feelings of remorse and sadness set in.too late to say I am sorry. Appreciate the living all you can and remember they have hearts, and they’re not to be walked over. Panagiota Pangie

I am no angel either. And reach out first to those you care about. The others, can wait…in my life,I have put off contacting people and then, it was too late. Being older, I know my time is limited, but I do the best I can. Any day could be my last. Not one person should assume that tomorrow they will be alive to.. Panagiota

As insightful a comment as I've received this month, for which I thank you, my good friend... May we redouble our efforts to reach out while we can do so -- and our loved ones are still within reach! ~ No angel am I
