How fast does life go by? Do you ever ask yourself this question?
Day to day life gets busy, you wake, get everyone out of the house, work, come home, feed everyone then go back to sleep and start over. Yes, there are times when you get a day off, or two or maybe a whole week but the kids get older, friends’ part ways, some pass.

I just found the lyrics to this song by Jo Dee Messina (what a great name too) words to reflex on.


I don't want to be the one who's old before their time,
And lose the wonder that I felt as a child.
I can't run this race believing I might lose;
There's still so much to see, and so much left to do.
Yes, I'll fall before I fly,But no one can say I never tried.

Oh, we just get one ride around the sun,In this dream of time.
It goes so fast that one day we look back,And we ask: was that my life?
I close my eyes and think how lucky I have been,
To hold the ones I love and share my dreams with them.
All those sunny days and all those starry skies:
Good morning kisses and sweet goodnights.
Oh, I can't tell them enough,Just how much that they are loved.

Oh, you just get one ride around the sun,In this dream of time.
It goes so fast that one day we look back,
And we ask: was that my life?
We just get one ride around the sun,In this dream of time.
It goes so fast that one day we look back,
And we ask: oh, was that my life?
Ooh, was that my life rollin' on by?
Oooh, rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin' on by.
Was that my life?Ooooh, was that my life?
