Between the Blinks

I am often amazed how quickly time flies by. How so much seems to happen in the mere blink of an eye. For there was a time, not that long ago when for us life took an ironic twist. A time when we were nothing…a time when we didn’t exist. Then, in the blink of an eye, somewhere in the universe it was decided, decreed…perhaps fated that, in the blink of an eye, two people would fall in love and in the blink of an I we were created. In the blink of an eye we opened our eyes. In the blink of an eye we were walking. In the blink of an eye we were thinking. In the blink of an eye we were walking. In the blink of an eye we were married with a family a house and a job In the blink of an eye we were retired… In the blink of an eye, if we’re lucky, we realize we have everything we ever desired. For when you reach a certain age you find you have a lot of time to think and you realize what makes life meaningful… what makes life important what gives life it’s beauty is what happens between the blinks.
