This past week I was in Baltimore visiting family, and it really dawned upon me when my once eight-month-old cousin had long turned four years old. The three years of not seeing them may not seem like a long time, but in terms of how fast time goes, it kind of is.
Everything grows and passes, leaving not much to take in. The fact of the matter is that time is so out of our control that it passes in a blink of an eye. Nonstop.
I’m learning to accept that time itself can be a scary thing. Too much of it, and even too little of it. And despite how I’ve understood its works, it’s something that remains unknown yet healing.
Time teaches you to trust the process and to understand that you must be in the present to fully capture the lessons.
I’ve had many moments of sorrow where I thought the pain wouldn’t end, but time taught me otherwise. My Creator taught me otherwise. And my resilience taught me that nothing bad nor good lasts.
This is what time has taught me. So I say this calls for 30 quotes that life has taught me thus far. I firmly believe that life itself binds us all in many ways.
We may all walk different paths with different experiences, but it is safe to say we all face feelings of pain, hurt, love, hope, success, and all that life comes with. So lifelong peace and prosperity to you and me.
