it is never too late...

It is never too late to re-unite with family you haven't seen in 20 years, to tell someone you love them, to start over, to pick up that hobby or go on that trip you always thought about or to start working on a blog you have left abandoned for almost a year. It is never too late. A very wise man told me this once with a great smile over a cup of black coffee talking about life and family while sitting in his living room. I will never forget it. It is never too late.

It is also never too early either. It is never too early to do that thing you never thought you could do, to find meaning in the people and the places around you, to decide that you need something different, to find your own personal Elvis. Why spend your whole life waiting for your whole life? Another wise man has told me this, more than once. I used to hate hearing it. Like mom nagging me to make my bed, my response was nothing but a sigh and a groan. Now, I seem to have taken it to heart. My life moving fast enough to only catch glimpses of myself, smiling in the mirror.

The purpose of life is to enjoy every moment. So here I am, not too late and not too early, setting the world at 6's and 7's...
