I never think of myself as old. I remember when my mom turned 30 the place she worked at threw her a party and she had a little gray in the sides of her hair. I remember thinking she was ancient.
I went back to Btown on Saturday for an event and bumped into so many friends. All of them looking exactly the same as they did in school but all of them introducing me to their kids that are in their teens. I still want to see my friends as the high school buddies I had in school not as adults.
Suddenly this rush of age creeped up on me and I smiled. I miss the youth from my past. I miss it dearly. I wish I could go back and have some redos. But I am proud of where I am today. I am proud of the fact that I am hopefully teaching my kids not to want redos. Do it all now enjoy the moment.
I don't think any of us realize the time that goes by until it...well, goes by. Take the time today to reconnect with an old friend, do something silly from your childhood, and don't forget to smile. Just because it is gone doesn't mean it cant be revived. I am forever young or is it
Young Forever Jay-Z? You may thank me for the jam...Until then
Keep Rockin
