Oh how time sure does fly. Today is my little brother's 18th birthday (he's the one singing the medley from my very first post) and its just ridiculous how he is now that old. I mean when I turned 20 this summer I felt that I was getting old but it definitely doesn't stick as much when you see the ones around you getting older as well. Odd how time works, it never stops, it consistently keeps on moving a second at a time. No force or barricade can stop time (though many, myself included wish that time would stop once in awhile). But just realizing how as day by day goes by, hour by hour we are all aging. Growing up has its perks in life, but as we age we should also grow wiser and more mature. Now don't get me wrong when I say mature I mean acting wisely or as someone beyond your years; what it doesn't mean is that you can't act young anymore after a certain age. I firmly believe that you should always be a kid at heart, especially since that way you can enjoy life. But then when important things and decisions come up you should by far show your wisdom and maturity by making the right, correct, and righteous decision.
Now with all that being said let me get back to my main point on how time can move so fast. In this face paced world we tend to forget to "smell the roses". But even so we should always take a moment to do so, sacrifice something to just take a breath and relax or contemplate something. The best way that I've heard this point proven is by the following video by Francis Chan. So if you've got the TIME, take a moment and watch the video and reflect on what Chan has to say....
