If I May Get A Chip Off My Shoulder...

Today I spent a lot of time in the car due to several errands I had to run. While I was driving, a song came on that changed my perspective a bit. The lyrics sang,

you're gonna miss this
you're gonna want this back
you're gonna wish this time
hadn't gone by so fast

these are some good times
so take a good look around
you may not see it now-
But, you're gonna miss this

I've spent so much time planning, wondering, and getting excited about next year or the year after that, and sometimes (I am ashamed to admit), five years from now.

I don't want to miss this time. I don't want to look back and not remember my past because I was so caught up in getting to my future.

I know the feeling.
I'm glad you posted. I was about to sent out an APB requiring it so we knew their hadn't been a deadly altercation with the chihuahuas next door.

I LOVE that song. I cry every time I hear it. It is funny you would post about it because I had been telling Tim about the song just recently. I think I am going to have to break down and buy the single off of itunes.
