As I sat upon my bed this morning sipping my aromatic coffee,

suddenly it was yesterday, but not just any yesterday.

Yesterday appeared to be hours gone by, yet in reality it was 50 years!

My eyes closed in a moment of contemplation and there I was seven years old watching the waves crashing on the beach in front of our little house on stilts.

Yesterday was suddenly today deep in my past!

What happens to time as we age?

How can moments be so present, when they are really locked away in the mind?

Here again I remind myself that I am present here sitting on my bed sipping my coffee, loving every second that moves by at the speed of light.
