We always want to get to somewhere that we are not. Isn't it funny how life works? We're always doing one of three things:
.01 Wanting something to come sooner
.02 Wanting something to end later
.03 Wanting something to happen again

We are never completley satisfyed what where we currently are. When you are excited for something, all you want is for that time to come. When you are enjoying yourself, all you want is for that time to last. When you loved something, all you want is for it to come again. We are never completley content because we are always looking forward, backward, anywhere but now.

We try to run away from time, to pretend it's not there. It's crazy how the passage of time can change so much... Albert Einstien once said "When you sit on a hot stove for two minutes, it seems like two hours. When you sit with a nice girl for two hours, it seems like two minutes." No matter how relative time seems ("time flies when you're having fun") it's never really speeding up or slowing down. We can run and hide all we like, nothing will change.

.01 I want things that I know are coming in my future... I want to grow up, to have a job, to get married, to have kids, to own a house.....i want it all to come
.02 I want things that I currently have to last forever... I love my life, my friends, my family, my boyfriend, my school, my situation, everything...i want it all to last
.03 I want things that I have already experienced... I want to have recess, to have snack time, to be able to be picked up by my parents again, to color...i want it all back

I remember running around outside, down the very path that devon is running down, in the autumn like it is now. He is playing like i used to play, I want to be that age again. And yet, I'm not willing to give up what I have for that again because I love what I have. And yet, I'm still looking forward to the rest of my life because I know I'll love what God has in store.

...and yet i'm afraid to lose
I struggle with this sooo much, I'm so happy, but I'm always thinking about how we are so incedibly bound to time.

(stupid time)
