A decade gone by

It's hard to believe but I guess sooner or later I have to accept it because I can't change it. I am a year older and have entered another decade of my life, gosh as if I didn't feel old enough already. Thinking back on things though, this is what I realized and if I didn't enter this new decade, I would have never even thought of it this way. 10 years is a long time, any way you look at it but I have lived an entire lifetime in only 10 short years. I learned how to drive. I fell in love, married my first love. I've been through what would be the darkest times of my life. Death entered my life again on several occasions. I've met many people. Made many friends, and loves. Lost many friends, and loves. I've given birth to 3 children. I've gained all of my life experience in this short time. So really, ..it's not so bad.

And it's really quite crazy when I think back on it all. What seems like ages and ages, ions ago- really isn't. Hard to believe all that can happen in just 10 years. And has hard as times have been, in there, scattered throughout ..the end made it all worth it. All I can hope for is that I fair as well in the next ten. Many more suprises await me and I pray, fewer heartaches.
