Life is moving very fast these days; faster than it ever did!

Life is moving very fast these days;

faster than it ever did!

Family albums are fading away into oblivion,

precious belongings are out-dated and dusty

Even our minds are having to strain hard,

just to recollect when personal memories occurred,

or trace the faces of close friends and relations.

Nothing is constant and we are having to move on.

Our bodies are changing every second of time,

whether we are healthy or terminally ill,

all of us are heading in just one direction

whether famous, infamous or unknown.

So my conclusion from all this is that

we must live for right now and enjoy it fully;

for the present is the most precious moment of all.
