YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT

Til it's gone. A line from the Joni Mitchell 's 1970's song- Big Yellow Taxi, has been playing through my head today. Reminds me of my 20's- a statement song on the environment. It also reminds me to think of enjoying what I have before it's gone. Too often, we all rush through events in our lives. Having my little grandchildren reminds me to enjoy all their stages- even those terrible twos do not seem so terrible to me now! Just a stage! The little boys in my life are actually quite delightful with their language development soaring! Of course Joni's song has been recorded by other modern artists- it's a great song. Are you enjoying now? Are you enjoying the things in your life? Regrets- I've had a few!! If we all lived and enjoyed what we have in the present, still planning for our future as needed, life would have few regrets as well! Are you humming her song now?
