What the Hell Just Happened

Live every day to the fullest
Each one is a treasure that cannot be recaptured
Life has a beginning, a middle, and an end
No second chance to experience things for the very first time
Make the most of every day
Breathe in deeply the breath of life
Remember the joys of discovering new things as a child
Your heart throbbing first romance as a teen
The night you announce you're going steady
The union of two souls as you marry
That scary time when your first child is born
Suddenly you realize you are not young anymore
Don't let life and love pass you by
It is meant to be lived to the fullest
Before you can turn around
You're sitting in a comfortable old easy chair
Wondering... “What the hell just happened!”

Life just happened... !
