Well, here it is . . . 2009! and already a week has flown by. Time goes so quickly now. I remember how slow time went when I was a child but holy cow, time flies now. Just when you want it to slow down, Bam! another week is gone. It seems as though I have hurried my whole life along. Get up, hurry to get to school, hurry the day along so I can go home, then I'm so tired that I hurry the hours away until I can go to bed, and then start all over again in the morning. Hurry the school year along, hurry my summer away, just hurry, hurry, hurry! One of my resolutions this year is to slow down. Enjoy the things that come along in my life. Stop hurrying! I will have to start to get up earlier so that I have some time to myself in the morning. Time to read and ponder the scriptures, time to plan and review my schedule for the day, time to not hurry! Life is too short and the older I get the more I realize this. I'm going to slow down and enjoy things more - after all, life is meant to be savored, shared and enjoyed, not hurried away. I'm going to embrace each day as it comes and live my life to the fullest! There now, that feels better already.
