The Time of Your LIfe

It’s amazing how certain songs just grab hold of you. Every time I have ever heard the song ‘good riddance’ from a little group called Green day I have this overwhelming feeling they looked into my heart. This song is me. Our ventures thus far throughout our lives have taken us from one end of the country to the other. Into different lives, jobs, and situations. It has been good, and bad. It has been happy and sad. ….and it has been ever so tiring. But through it all --- through every single moment I can Cleary and wholeheartedly day – for what it’s worth, it’s been worth all the while – I have had the time of my life! To this day this song remains one of my very favorites.

Another turning point;
a fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.

It's not a question
but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs
and still frames in your mind.

Hang it on a shelf
In good health and good time.

Tattoos of memories
and dead skin on trial.

For what it's worth,
it was worth all the while.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
