Every December am reminded of lost opportunities when it comes to the people I love. I always imagine I have all the time in the world. So much time I could bath in it. I had always planned to ask my only living grandparent about what life was like in the past,I’d planned to spend quality time with her, but alas dementia has set in, she doesn’t know who I am, she can’t even speak. Woe is me. Where did the time go? All the time I thought I had left with her,all the time that kept me putting off spending time with her?
I often quip about how ephemeral life is, in December, it becomes apparent to me that I don’t have all the time I thought I had, time really is running out!
Do you need to make ammends? Do you need to build bridges? Do you need to reach out? Do you need to become a better humanbeing? Do you need to return to God? Do you need to forgive and be forgiven? Well then, the time is now. As the Bible says, now is the appointed time,today is the day of salvation. For it is appointed once for a man to die and after that the judgement!
I dedicate this post to honor the memory of Christian who was born on Christmas eve ,a beautiful soul, who changed my life in more ways than I can put in words, I know heaven is a more beautiful place because you are there.
