Generations and Time

To Whom It May Concern,

This is not my first attempt at creating a blog. I'm hoping though with choosing to remain anonymous that I will give myself permission to write freely. About any topic that comes into my mind. The reason I'm writing today is because I realize that life is short and time is the most precious thing we as humans have.

From the moment we leave our mother's womb and inhale that first breath we are dying. As children death seems impossible. We are the generation that will live into eternity. We don't respect that time will catch up to us as it did all of our ancestors before. We are no different.

The twenties are a time for discovering who you are NOT. We try new things, discover the world doesn't revolve around us and life is most definitely not fair. The thirties for most is time for settling into routines. Jobs and families dictate most of our time. We are to busy rushing from one place to another to see how quickly life is passing us by.

Now, Generation X, MY generation, has entered their forties. We are too old for the Millennials nd still the young upstarts to the Baby Boomers. As we have matured we have grown into our personalities and expanded not only out minds, but our waistlines as well. While many have turned into the parents they claimed they would never be, other have turned against society's normal. More men and women are single without children. Religion as grown lax as people consider themselves spiritual. A few of my friends are atheists. A belief I find terrifying. Not because I think they will burn in hell. No, I think it brave for them to believe that this one life is it. That we only have one shot to make it count.

To Whom It May Concern....Live life to the fullest, that way you will have no regrets...
