Monday, December 10, 2007How time goes by....It seems like only yesterday my friend Dan Hirst and I wore bras on our head as we raided the 732 MI BN first floor laundry room. It was in 1991 that this assult on the dryers took place...fast forward to 2007, 16 years later. I sit in amazement, 16 years. Thoughts race through my mind about that gap in time. What have I done, or haven't done. What should I have done, or not done. Regrets, we all have them; memories to. It's when I look at the pictures I see two men, who let to much time pass by without connecting. We are much different people now then we were 16 years ago, as I pause wondering if we are better men. I will speak for Dan when I say he certainly is. Involved in his Church, raising a new family and retaining a valuable position within the community...I would say, yes, much better. Dan stopped by and we had time to talk and eat dinner, but again, time went to fast. We said our so longs, and as he drove off, I felt sad to see him leave, but happy to have seen him again. So many thoughts and emotions. If you would, just take a moment of your time to reconnect with someone who you haven't talked to in a while. Let's take this Holiday season and work on relationships, the true gifts in life, rather than the other commercial aspect of the season....I promise it will be better than any other gift!
