8/25/08

present tense

Thankfully, it was an uneventful first day of school. It's hard to accept the fact that the kids are as old as they are(6th & 3rd grade). It hit me about middle of the morning and I haven't fully recovered. Where has the time gone? I was reminded of this.

15 As for man, his days are like grass— he blooms like a flower of the field; 16 when the wind passes over it, it vanishes, and its place is no longer known
Psalm 103:15-16

Life is short. Make the most of now. I keep telling myself this, but I find I'm being distracted more and more by trivial matters. Such a daily battle.
