"Don't judge a man until you have walked a mile in his mossicains"


I was a baby
Shaking a plastic rattle
I was a toddler
Running around the house
I was a little girl
Having a tea party with dolls
I was a big girl
Going to a sleepover
I was a tween
Opening a lemonade stand
I am a seventeen years old teenager
Driving to the mall with friends
I will be a college graduate
Looking for a job
I will be a wife and a mother
Raising my family
I will be a professor
Preparing students for the road ahead
I will be a retiree
Having so much fun
I will be a 100-years-old great-grandmother
Preparing to meet my husband in heaven
Tempus fugit! Time flees!

The author's comments:
"Tempus fugit" is Latin for "Time flees" and time flees so fast that it is unbelieveable.
