Bringing things to life!

WOW....
I'm really tired today... or tonight. Still trying to put it all together. It's a learning process, that's for sure.
Time.... why does it go by so fast? They say time flies when your having fun. It also flies when your busy weather it's fun or not and sometimes it just flies for no apparent reason... or so it seems. Maybe you just notice it more as you get older.
Since cancer came knocking at my door several years ago...I appreciate the beauty in things more than I did before. I see things in a whole different light. It's like God turned on my flood lights, and said... Knock... Knock!! Hel-looo...here I have a gift for you, a pair of 3-D rose colored glasses. Now look and see what I have been trying to show you!
And what to my wondering eyes did appear??? Yet another day... without any fear!
I may have always liked antiques and vintage things, because they all have a story behind them. Through the dirt and grime, dust and time... lies a story from each piece. Where it hung or layed.. maybe it was proudly displayed. Whose hands touched them, who bought the piece and brought it home.. or who was the artist that took his or her precious time to dream it up and bring it to life. Everyone has a story to tell and every piece... has a story behind it.
I have a new appreciation for these things... giving them time back, like God gave me. I cherish my new time... and all that is in it.
I hope you cherish yours too.
