Gone and completely forgotten. |
The older I get, the more relevant this gets:
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
And you are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
Sun is the same, in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say... |

I think about the lifelines, and likely health lines, not just of me but those close to me.
You don’t just live then one day die theres usually a chuck at the end when you’re not much fun and can’t climb mountains or do sexual gymnastics anyway, or maybe even have a meaningful conversation ?
When you stack those lines on top of each other you find you crack on with a bit more urgency. |

"I'm going to a funeral tomorrow of someone special who also had MND. A very positive person. Someone who didn't give up or give in.
Such a wake up call.
hope your day is not too stressful xx"
Thank you. It will definitely be emotional, but they want tomorrow to be a celebration, so I will do my utmost to honour that. |

A lot of people do live one day and then die. |
