Time Goes On
It’s not that we forget to live. We always have this thought in our mind, but the sad reality is that even after knowing how precious our time is and realizing our limited time on earth, all we do is be anxious, depressed, worried about the future, worried about the present, and regretting the past.. Let’s be alive, let’s rejoice, let’s change our perspective, and let’s change the world.
Your internal clock is running away at the end of your life.
Memories that feel like they happened yesterday become glimpses of memories that vanish.
People you used to know
stroll by with no idea what's going on.
The times you used to spend together
Exist as though you've never existed.
Years pass, friends pass away, and you never know when you'll say your final farewell.
Oh, how I wish I could rewind the clock.
Spend time with loved ones and remember what was once yours.
Alternatively, if you want to travel even further back,
Imagining yourself as a child in a candy store.
What a longing I have for the way I used to feel.
On Christmas Day, when Santa Claus was a genuine person.
But let's get back to reality...get let's back to today.
Family is becoming increasingly scarce, and memories are fading.
Tick Tock...tick tock...

Sunsetting Pride 2024
Happy Pride! As Pride Month 2024 begins to sunset, I want to congratulate every individual who has become brave enough to take control of their life and live as their authentic, beautiful self. This is a month when it highlights those accomplishments. From acceptance within families and friends to acknowledgement in the political arena. Starting with Stonewall (and events prior) leading to the Supreme court ruling for same-sex marriages. We are here, we are queer, and we should never live in fear.
