I was glancing through some family photos and noticed that the recent looking ones are dated Jan '06. I was surprised by the fact that two years have gone by so quickly.
It reminded me of a quote by C.S Lewis. I can't remember it verbatim but the gist of is: The fact that we are constantly surprised by time is like a fish being constantly surprised by water. It must be then, that if time is not natural to us it is because we are infinite beings.
Why is it, on the whole, so difficult to live in the moment, in the only place where life exists? I look back at pictures of the past and feel a tinge of sadness, most of the time I wasn't really there in those precious and beautiful moments with my children.
I guess its never to late to be in the moment. Okay I'm here in the moment, at the moment......
