Already a year since the first time I stepped foot in the house we currently live in. Didn't move into it until later in July, but got to look at it this time last year. It was such a blur at that time as well. Having one week to find a house to live in for the next three to four years is a rush. You live and breathe looking at houses for that week, as well as the weeks prior; frantically browsing online.
That is just one example of how time flies. Even just week to week, I constantly find myself wondering where the time goes. Just yesterday, it seems, I was preparing for Easter, or even getting ready for Christmas holidays. But those are long gone of course. What can a person do to keep up?
Take time to smell the flowers. Isn't that what we are supposed to do? With the birth of this blog, I've been seriously looking at the passing of time and what I can do to make sure I take full advantage of it. Just like yesterday, which was Fathers' Day, we could have just sat at home and enjoyed the sun or watched a movie, but we decided to go with our neighbours to an Arts Festival. It was a great time. Sitting in the grass we got to listen to some good local music, as well there was an acrobatics group similar to Cirque doing a show. All around good fun, but if we would have just stayed home, we would have missed it.
Yet to schedule some local fishing time in, but working diligently on that one. Will be doing some fishing with the parents come early July so can't complain yet. As mommy gets bigger, we need to continually ensure that she is comfortable and safe thus, not sure if we will be getting any camping in this summer but we may try.
In all, it is up to the individual to control how fast life passes you by. If you choose to ignore all the little things in life, it will definitely feel like a short time. But, if you take the time to sit down and view your accomplishments, achievements, failures, or otherwise, you may just enjoy yourself a little more and at the same time not feel like life is passing you by.
-Another great day
