Like water slips through our fingers so do the years that go by slip away. Like water that evaporates into thin air, our years pass and leave us dry in the same way rivers lose their essence when the water of life escapes them. Life itself runs away from our bodies and time records every moment of our memories leaving us as legends that passed through it.
Some will be remembered as others will be forgotten, and as old age consumes us there is nothing but a trace of what it was. What’s important is the moment, the here and now. The rest we can’t change or predict, but only regret or expect. Just remember as time goes on forever, you do not.
Act on it now before your river runs out.
