Holy cow, how did 2024 pass so quickly? Did time speed up? It sure felt fast to me.
Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if life had a pause button. Kathy Mattea recorded a song called "Who's Gonna Know," it's about an only child asking who will help her recall her memories when she is all that's left of her family of three. This line always stops me in my tracks, "If life were a video I could rewind, I'd go back and slow down each moment in time. Then I'd disconnect the fast forward button so I'd have forever to tell 'em I love 'em. The older I get I can't get enough of 'em." What IF we could pause time? At what moment in 2024 would you hit that button?
I think I would hit the pause button during our time on the beach in 2024. My little famiy of three would be relaxing, watching the waves roll in while sharing stories and soaking up the sun. I'd allow the day to drift by, watching the sun sink into the horizon then gazing upon the moon over the ocean while sharing a toast with those I love. I'd stop thinking about what I need to do, where I need to go or why I need to hurry and finish the laundry. I'd...just...BE.
Since we can't go back in time and hit the pause button let's make 2025 a year when we focus on the magical moments we spend with loved ones. Tell those special people you love them, don't wait until you wish you could disconnect the fast forward button, enjoy the NOW and just BE.
