enjoy it while you can-

i was walking through vasona park yesterday
with janie in my arms-
we were waiting for the train to start running
and we were looking for a table
to have our mid-morning crackers.
we passed by a lady walking her dog
who smiled and said,
"enjoy it while you can!
she won't let you hold her much longer."
i've been thinking about that a lot lately-
people are big
a lot longer than they are small,
and so small people need to be cherished-
because their smallness doesn't last long.

but that's good advice for a lot of areas of life:
"enjoy it while you can..."
health, wealth, love, your 20's,
your 30's, your career, your kids,
they all are gone way before you are ready
to say goodbye to them.
"enjoy it while you can..."



this is so much fun!
