Yesterday was my birthday.
Maybe on your last birthday, you were thinking about how quickly life passes and what you could do to slow down the pace.
I was doing that, too, which made me think about changing my perspective on time and how I spend it. I hope you enjoy it.
My Birthday
I tried to stop
The hands on my clock
But they kept going tick tock, tick tock
The hands of time are really strong
And always break the lock
They always break the lock
I tried to clip
The wings of time
But they keep
flying by
Faster and faster and faster and faster
Every time I try
I tried putting brakes
On the calendar pages
So they would slow down or stop flippin’
But they kept flippin’ by
In the wink of an eye
‘Cause brakes on time keep slippin’
So instead of spending
All my time
Racing to make time go slow
I slowed myself down
To figure out
How to find joy and grow
