The Swiftness of Time

Summer is upon on us, flowers blooming, the happy sounds of birds, gentle breezes, although can be a "gust" at times, outdoor activities everywhere. I do like spring, summer and fall, winter not so much. In many ways this past year has left me in a blur, as if I can't find a secure feeling at times. Everything rushing by so fast, like flood waters that can't be stopped nor even slowed. That is what what I am experiencing daily. Deaths of 4 people either friend or relatives within a 6 week period, has left me still as if in a swirling whirlwind. Losing a sister suddenly almost a year ago,was traumatic with missing her every day still. My one remaining sister is so precious, and I still have 1 brother, much like me, I suppose, misses all the family and friends we so depended on. I suppose there is always a strong bond between sisters, like no other. I'm so thankful for all the love and caring mine shows to me. As a child I never had a thought of not being surrounded and supported by so many I now miss, in my "sunset" years. If I were to have anything to say to those younger than myself, I would say "hold those dear ones close, because time passes with such speed, every minute has a meaning in the lives of those you love". Never miss a chance to say "I love you", you will be glad you did.
Just being me,
