Quote and Randomness
"Time waits for no man. Time is the raw material, the cellular matter that comprises our lives. As the present is left in our wake, slowly disintegrating into a trail of moments and memories, evaporating into the vast nothingness that is the past, like the tail of a comet behind us, so too does the future sprint towards our face at a lightning bolt's pace. Pause for a second and contemplate your life 10 years ago or 10 months ago. Where you were… Who you were. Ponder how vivid those memories are. How it all seems like yesterday. How forever didn't once seem so long and how tomorrow once appeared to be a lifetime away. How so much has transpired yet it seems like nothing happened. How so often you felt trapped, time froze and one day melted in the monotonous next, yet it all went by in the blink of an eye. Waste not another second, not another opportunity… Dream not of a better tomorrow. Embrace the now, no matter how grim or challenging. Focus on today and all that it promises from the grimmest and most challenging to that which brings endless bliss and joy. This day that has finally arrived will soon be gone forever as will the future you've so long envisioned. Like these fleeting moments, you too will soon pass away. If it all ended now, what would your life be worth? What will your contribution have been? If it were all over in this very instant, how would you be remembered? Time will tell. "

It was a quality weekend. Lot's of fun mixed with a little productivity. Friday my parents had us over for dinner. Nothing fancy, just hoagies and nice company. Saturday I spent the morning reading. Around midday I went to my buddy's house for a party/cookout. It was a real good time. Didn't get home from there until after midnight. Yesterday I did some studying for an exam I need to take, some more reading and then watched the Phillies and Eagles march to victory.
Weather was phenomenal all weekend.
Tomorrow I'm heading out to central PA for a meeting. We will leave at the butt crack. It will be a short meeting and the rest of the day we will spend fishing up near the Poconos. It should be a good day. Needless to say, I won't be around much tomorrow. At least not until later in the evening.
Hope all is well with everyone!
