The Second Life

There is a saying that we live two lives and the second one begins when we realize there’s only one. Intellectually, I get the message, but always feared the real meaning might come a little too late.

Time is passing faster than I could anticipate and while I’m doing my best to slow down, appreciate what’s in front of me, I know tomorrow I’m going to wake up and it’ll be ten years later.

So, I’m doing my best to live my second life.

There are no do-overs, but I can approach each day as if I’ve already lived it… and will do better this time than last.
