How quickly time passes! The Bible describes life as a vapor, that appears for only a moment, and then vanishes. In looking back across my "paper" photos, it has become obvious to me that I've lost track of time. It's amazing just how quickly things can change. How sad that we only become cognizant of the brevity of life when it has already been half-spent! As my grandpa (and grandma) used to say, "Today's events are but tomorrow's memories." So today, I'm reminiscing, looking over these old photos, but no doubt tomorrow I'll be looking over different pictures- pictures of my grandchildren, and possibly great grandchildren. Life goes on. And I'll be viewing even more pictures then... pictures taken at former jobs, in neighborhoods where I once lived, and with people whom I once knew and have since lost all contact. (We always say we'll stay in contact with each other, but we never do. Life just gets too busy.) Some of these photos were taken many years ago, although it seems as if it were only yesterday. I've enhanced them as much as possible to make them less grainy. I wish I'd had a digital camera back then. My advice to anyone viewing these old photos is to enjoy the good times with your family and friends while they're here. Take lots of pictures and videos. Tomorrow brings certain change.
