My elders warned me – ‘life moves at a million miles an hour’.
When you are young and full of disdain for authority, you make up your own rules, you choose to believe what you want to believe. So I kept pace, moving along at that million miles an hour.
Who knew I would crash into my future self at such a young age? Who could have predicted my youth would come to such a screeching halt?
All I can do now is sort through the wreckage and try to put the pieces of the carnage of my life back together.

Wow, good one! I think I’ve moved at the pace I wanted to through most of my life.
Who knew I’d enjoy it when that meant slower.
Thanks….sometimes I feel like I’m right where I should be and other times I try to figure out how I got here so fast.
Good one. Your elders are quite right. If time were not a moving thing…
Thanks Sheila. It goes by so fast!
Time went so slow when we were younger. Next month we’ll be half way through 2014…it’s crazy!
Great job on the challenge, Susan!
Thanks Jill….I guess Cher had it right – “if I could turn back time”.
Ha ha! She’s coming to Charlotte for a concert soon…I had no idea she was still touring. 🙂
Haha….maybe she’s going backwards!! 😉
Ha ha! Maybe! 🙂
Time just flies by, Susan. It makes my head spin 😉
It’s mind boggling!! Hope you are well. 🙂
