Reflection

Life has a way of passing quickly before we know it time has flown we have unknowingly grown old when we still feel young at heart but our hair has gotten grey our skin has begun to wrinkle our thoughts on life become reflective.... on what we should have done what we should not have done each day becomes a blessing time spent with family memories we try to make while we are still here on earth creating a positive outlook upbeat.... yet sadness creeps into us for we realize time is short and we are getting older life and death and yes taxes will have to be paid full filled....
