Life Goes By In a Flash

Life goes by in a flash is a famous quote/ saying. The longer I live on this earth I’ve found that quote/ saying to be true. This year 2020 has made a believer out of me. I’ve seen so many people pass away like never before. ( Family, Friends, Celebs, Strangers).Due to COVID-19 and other things. All these things remind that life is fragile. However, it will always be what you make of it. So live it to the full.Make your mark( in whatever capacity that is).Because life really does go by in a flash.Try to give your flowers to the living while they can still smell and appreciate them. And I will try to do likewise. While I’m still able to smell the sweet scent of the roses. Alexis Y. 9/1/2020 In memory of all those who have lost their lives this year. Dedicated to Chadwick Boseman ( Black Panther Wakanda Forever)!!!

I agree dear Alexis. Been a fast and hard year. We lost so many. I agree. Better to send flowers to the people alive and near. Show them we love and we care for them. Thank you for sharing the worthwhile words and thoughts.

Very tragic the death of Chadwick Boseman, a touching remembrance and reminder that life is short, we never know what will happen tomorrow, take advantage of each moment, love the sentiment!

wiser words to live by Alexis - I smiled regarding the flowers have told hubby and son I want no flowers at my funeral - if they cant give them to me when I'm alive they are no bloody use when I'm dead! Live every minute to the full we never know when it will be our last:-( hugs Jan xx
