Running Out of Time

sand begins to pour at birth daily clocks tick tock tick tock sixty here, sixty there seconds, minutes time keeper laughs watching us closely time is running we are frantic too late now no time left

So true! I love what L Milton Hanks just commented, "Carpe diem!" Yes, seize the day!

We have to live EVERY moment, for we are living them for thousands of others who did not get to.

Unfortunately, true. So, we must seize every moment and make the most of it. Carpe diem!

I have to admit I do try to seize ever single drop out of mine.
