Every single day is a reminder that life is blowing by at a rapid rate, and I often feel as if I am attempting to sink my nails into the screeching fast-paced rate at which time is blurring past our faces. Stop the boat. I saw an interesting graphic the other day that reminded us […]
Shuffle. Shake. Remix. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Blink. Shake. Wake up. Years gone. Time flies. Wrinkles appear. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Twenty-six. 26. Time flies. Stop the boat. It drives me crazy when I hear people who insist they have ADD, ADHD, or other forms of attention disorders, simply because they have a difficult time concentrating on […]
