THE WORLD KEEPS TURNING

written after my daughter was diagnosed with metastatic cancer, stage 4

THE WORLD KEEPS TURNING
Sometimes we don't want it to do that.
We want to just remain in the present.
We dread what the future may bring.
But we soon realize that time cannot be stopped. And,,
THE WORLD KEEPS TURNING
So we learn to deal with things.
We find solace in the support of friends.
We treasure the time we have now.
We reach deep inside ourselves for strength,
that we didn't even know we had. Because,,
THE WORLD KEEPS TURNING
I trust that the future holds good times and happiness.
I know that i am thankful for everything,
and everyone in my life. I have peace and love and faith. And,,
THE WORLD KEEPS TURNING.

The world keeps turning... I think growing old makes that abundantly clear. We can't do much about the passage of time, but we can use the time we're given to make a good life!
