No Time

You have your paper

You have your pen

You have a tablespoon of sand that will not fight gravity to give you                         
more...............Time

At some point in our life we will find ourselves in this place

With our friends or family members

This is something we have put off until the last minute!

Whether it is that grudge you held, that apology you denied or the lack of telling someone you love them

Why is it that we wait until we are on our deathbeds or we are standing over theirs that we decide to say what we needed to say?

Things like

How much we appreciate them…

How much we miss them…

How much we still need them…

How much you cry for them…

How it hurts us to see close ones cry for their absents…

If we know what we want to say, then why wait?

If you wanted to say sorry or even thank you why do we put it off?

Saying you love someone or apologizing to someone for your mistakes for not being there when they needed you most!

A statement as important as that shouldn't be put off like your weekly laundry that just builds up in the corner!

A statement with such life giving opportunities that was just left in the dark hoping that one day it would be found and brought into light!

I find myself in question asking if I should have brought it up myself?

Was I the one hiding from it?

Was I the one running from what needed to be faced?

Was it truly in the other person’s hands?

Now the hourglass has turned and the last grain has just finished spiraling its way through a tight and narrow squeeze just to disturb the rest of the Pile by its fast descent into the sand

Shifting the sand to the edge of the glass

Leaves us with

Another incomplete chapter.

The next chapter will be called “lessons learned…”
