The clock is ticking

New Journal

I started this new journal because as I read the old one I realised I wasn't the same person any more.  I started it a whole year ago and decided I wanted a fresh one.  Time for a new perspective.

Guess what I'm really aware of lately is time.  How it passes so quickly and how you go from thinking you have enough to thinking you have run out.  But time is constant and doesn't change.  But recently I am well aware of ageing.  I turn 27 soon and I feel like if I want to achieve my goals, or achieve anything I feel passionately about, I need to start now.  That now is the time, because if I don't start soon, I won't have enough time to finish, or to enjoy the achievement.  Yet I know that I will probably love for another 40-50 years (I'm a smoker and overweight).  Getting old is really bothering me of late.  A human life span is on average about 80 odd years, I mean really that is not a long time.  It seems a bit pointless that those few years of life you get are spent in the pursuit of money, normally in a job you don't enjoy and never being satisfied with what you have, always wanting more.  I have a good life that I share with someone I love, yet I always want more, never satisfied with what I have.  Although maybe because I feel I'm getting older I'm starting to appreciate what I have more and more.
