Time in a Stolen Bottle

Do you ever feel like time is pointless? You wake up, go about your day and the next thing you know.. it's gone. You're asleep again and you wake up tomorrow.. and you go on and you do the same thing. The days may vary with things you do, but time waits for noone and nothing. It keeps tucking right along, no time to slow down or stop, you gotta go before you're left behind. The days pass by too fast for me.. Enjoying life. That is what we're told to do. "CARPE DIEM!" they all exclaim, but little do they know, as they trot back to their homes and lonley corners, they have not heeded their own advice. Nobody lives for the day, for they must plan for tommorow. That is an essential part of life. We can try to "live for the day," that is as much as we can do, try. A smile a day is all the gratuidy I need from the universe.

As Stephen Vincent Benét says, "Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways. "
