I knew that the days flying by was not going to change as I got older or even when I retired by what my dad said to me many years back. My mother had passed and he lived on his own for 5 years after that before he passed on. By that point in time he was totally blind. Because he wasn't nearby, I would worry about him for many reasons - safety, health-wise, and especially loneliness. One day we were talking on the phone and probably in expressing my concern about him one way or another, he proceeded to tell me how fast time went by for him. I was like "Really?". I just couldn't believe it, from a man who didn't get out of the house very often and was limited by his lack of sight. So now I'm not a bit surprised that I can't keep up with the time that is flying by me and know it won't change anytime soon...........NOTHING.
