The Time you Thought you’d Have Someday.
Don’t blink
Don’t blink.
It’ll pass you by.
Slow are the days.
Till in the blink of an eye,
Rest is no longer out of reach.
All at once, there’s no one left to teach.
Crying because it’s slipped away.
The time you thought you’d have someday.
If it’s not too late for you,
Open your eyes or you’ll be here, too.
Never think you can look away. Hold onto the moments you have, today.

Do You have a Support Network?
Life is harder when you’re on your own. Human beings are social creatures, and we usually feel better when we have support from a strong social network around us. For most people, it’s our families that hold us together like glue.
