Reception at 9:00 in Vanastra. Photo by Gary Walden The trouble with time is... One thing about time - there's never enough of it. There's never enough time to get to know our children before they leave home; to tell our parents that time has changed our -priorities but not our love. There's never enough time for writing long letters to old friends; for reminiscing with Grandpa; for reading fairy tales; for calling an old classmate just to say hello. There's never enough time for tending a broken heart; for encouraging a failing friend; for reassuring an unhappy child. There's never enough time to join a good cause, write 'the government, protest an injustice. There's never enough time for dropping in on a shut-in; for visiting a lonely relative who'd love to see us; for baking a birthday cake; for helping a neighbor in time of need. There's never enough time to teach patience to a small child; to offer advice to a beginner; to worry about somebody else's problems. There's never enough time to read a good book; savor good music; reflect on love, sort out memories. There's never enough time to watch a winter sunset, feed the birds, listen to the rain, hear the unspoken message in a loved one's voice. And yet there's always bnough time to think about never having enough time. - It'. confusing, I know, but One of these Hays - when 1 can find time - I'll figure it out and let you know. That is, if you can findthe time to listen.
