The world turns so fast.

The world turns by so fast. Just sitting here watching everyone walk around and talk, it seems to be all in fast forward, but our minds trick us into thinking we have all the time in the world. It's so niave to see everyone and to see them thinking about how they will live forever, when life could end tomorrow. I wonder if people really understand the meaning of the quote "Live each day as if it was your last." I know sometimes I forget it, talking about my future goals, when I may never have a chance to reach them. But I can live in the moment, do things I never would of imagined of doing right then and there, thinking about the consquences later. I'm just trying to decide.

Live in the moment, and be wild and crazy, doing whatever pleases me as I go or
Planning ahead, making sure I know what I want.

I wish I had the skills to do both.
