A Country Conversation

I heard this country song today that took me back. It was like you were talking to me amidst all of my hustle.

"You're gonna miss this
You're gonna want this back
You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast
These are some good times
So take a good look around
You may not know it now
But you're gonna miss this"
-Trace Adkins

Lord help me. I can be in such a hurry to get to the next part of life, to be out of this job, to travel to this place, to... it's always something. Help me Lord. It is songs like this that help me remember that where I am today is as beautiful as where I will be tomorrow. Life is so short, and it's like I'm in a hurry to live it. I want to enjoy where I am now. I am blessed. I am so well taken care of. Thank you Lord. Some of my best times with you are when it is just you and me on the highway, and it's raining.lol. It just feels so nostalgic. Like memories only you and I know about. I love those secret times with you. They keep me. We have so many memories together, sometimes I forget, looking for the next moment, the next whatever. To live in this world is hard as a believer, I cannot imagine life without you at a time like this. I complain about my job, my home, and I'm sure a zillion other things. Life is good. I'm gonna miss these days, like I now miss my childhood. I've got friends that people wait a lifetime to meet, a family that has become a nearly extinct species to our society, a Mom who has sacrificed a great portion of her time to raise me, a Dad who loves me the most unconditionally that I've known, and a God who has forever made my life full. I love to love you.
