T.I.M.E. :

The other day, I’m talking to a relative of my fiance and it was so interesting listening to her describe her tales of utter abandonment and virility of youth. For a moment, it also took me back to such momentous place of pure hope and virgin mirth full of desire to join the race of adults.

And sooner than later didn’t I.

And with such transitions came a pillage of responsibility, and achilles, a day to day affair to a never-ending saga of #ChoicesHaveConsequences It’s been quite a journey, of also joyous revelation once you know your way around, and even with the uncertainty: you have to fight tooth and nail to get out of the ‘rat race’, then comes an overwhelming sense of freedom and achievement that none can buy nor can you attain from anyone else.. But, you know deep within your soul, you are now finally living and not just surviving on the echelons and throes of mirry captivity to prove your worth in a world that sucks the life off you without a nuance of remorse.

Still, I’m young, and there’s more to learn and so little time to fully appreciate the lessons.
The other day I’m listening to this album by Mya, so grown up she seems, and for a moment I wondered, if the word “T.I.M.E.” were an acronym, what would it stand for? I guess “Tears In My Eyes” would suffice…

And for sure, after all is said and done, and I’m taking my last breath on my deathbed, the only “Tears In My Eyes” I’m willing and hoping to bear are the one’s of a life well lived.

But who am I to say all that, here are some men and women that have better insight to not living a half-life:
