"Life goes at such a fast pace these days" ........but does it? The reality is that it 'just goes'. Time moves on and lost moments are just that, lost. So many sayings which resonate truth but are ignored. "Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today." "You are a long time dead." and of course "Seize the day." but we don't, we allow ourselves to rush nearer to our final breath, wasting precious moments, which some poor folks breathing their last, would give anything for.
We have more methods of communication than ever before but texts become our voices, faceless messages sent to, and received from friends and family, to save actually speaking. Wasted precious opportunities to speak with someone who will one day be gone, their time used up.......Poor souls with throat cancer, their vocal cords ravaged with treatment and surgery would give anything to be able to say "Hello".
To coin another phrase....... "Life is not a rehearsal."
Seize the day, put your phone away.
Don't put off what you need to do, Do it now, do it for you!
