150th post

after choir today we decided to go to apple strudel place and eat burgers, apple strudel of course and a smoothie! they're yummeh!!!

anyway, only 2 weeks to go, and we'll be on our way to the philippines. it'll only be a week though, which is, sadly, far from enough. but the thing is, no one knows about it yet. except for YOU, and all the rest reading. so it will be fun to surprise the rest. (:


LIFE SPEED

Have you ever watched kids on the merry-go-round,
or listened to rain slapping the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight,
or gazed at the sun fading into the night?
You better slow down, don't dance so fast,
time is short, the music won't last.

Do you run through each day on the fly.
When you ask "How are you?," do you hear the reply?
When the day is done, do you lie in your bed,
with the next hundred chores running through your head?
You better slow down, don't dance so fast,
Time is short, the music won't last.

Ever told your child, we'll do it tomorrow,
and in his haste not seen his sorrow?
Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die
'cause you never had time to call and say "Hi"?
You better slow down, don't dance so fast
time is short, the music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere,
you miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
it's like an unopened gift thrown away.
Life is not a race, so take it slower,
hear the music before the song is over.
