It takes 365 days for the Earth to travel around the sun
That means we have 365 days to love and learn from our mistakes, one by one
We used to tell time through the sun and a stone
Now we tell time through clocks and a wrist watch
We are more aware of the presence of time
Or the presence of eternity, which is the absence of time
It take us to our knees, we our not in totally control of our destiny
The planets may shift, a new comet may be born, but we’ll never know
How does that make you feel?
Sometimes in this life we feel ridiculed or mocked
But we can change how we react to each other
Because we still have 365 days to make a difference in the lives of others
(C) Carly Wiggins 2007
Wonderful! And so true.. every year at New Year’s we get reminded of this, but sometimes in between we forget ..
