You know the saying, "time flies when you're having fun." Well, the saying is somewhat accurate but so very wrong at the same time. Time flies, whether you are having fun or not. People only say time flies when you're having fun because happiness brings such joy but seems so fleeting. Before you know it the moment of happiness and elation comes to an end, and the sudden realization of resolution makes people somewhat introspective. However, the regrets and satisfactions that come from contemplation can and should steer you in the right direction; that direction is forward. Time does not go backwards, nor does it stand still. It is a perpetual driving force and wake up call to take advantage of the gift that is constant, and that is the present. With that being said, I will take advantage of the blessing of life and thank God for giving me an opportunity to grow and to understand the significance of now.Now will one day become the past. Now is also the future that is soon to be. However, I do not dwell on the past that could have been or focus on the future that is yet to come. I live in the now, because the present is the best gift of all.
