Life Moves Pretty Fast - Day 162 of 365 Days to a Better You
[wpvideo HMMea6M9]Take it from Ferris Bueller. Life moves pretty fast.When we moved to Boston four years ago, April and I had an open timeline. We didn't know if we'd stay five years, 10, 20. She accepted a job offer. I continued working my same job and working on my outside platforms.When we arrived only one of our two kids was married and neither had children. Now, both are married, we have two grandchildren, and a third on the way. That's precipitated a move back to Kansas City.We jumped into the New England life with both feet. Some friends recently commented that we've done more in four years than they'd done living here 20 years. We've enjoyed every moment and have often felt like we were on vacation.16 days from today our Boston journey ends. We'll spend three days on the road getting back to Kansas City. We'll resume our life there close to family and building and taking possession of our "forever house."These four years flew by and I'm struck with the idea that soon this parentheses in our lives will become a distant memory; that time we lived in Boston.Life DOES move pretty fast. It's human nature to miss it, if you don't stop and look around. What are you missing? What have you been missing? Slow down. Take it all in. One day these days will be the yesterdays you long to relive. Enjoy them while they're here.Boston will never be just another place on the map to us, but the gravity of home is strong. We'll rebuild our home base in Kansas and a new life that will move pretty fast begins.Our time here is short and these moment pass into dim memory, but to be alive in this moment is a gift. Don't miss it!Thanks for stopping by the blog today and for liking and sharing the post. I'd love to hear your ideas for topics.
