LFG27’s BodyBlog

I’ve been off of Bodyspace for a while. I’ve still been hitting the gym but got caught up in a whirlwind of events that left me with little spare time for the internet. One event being someone dear to me nearly ending his own life. It seems we all forget how precious those close to us are at one second or another. We get wrapped up in ourselves, in our jobs, and even our gym time. I knew he was struggling but didn’t see his walls caving in on him until it was almost too late. I return to Bodyspace with a newer understanding, a renewed strength and purpose. To better myself so that I may be a pillar for others. I wrote this poem the week after my friend went into the hospital.

Time

Remember what matters most

Time is simply the measurement of moments

in a fragment of our eternity

It passes without permission

and didn’t we

look at the clock and wonder how

quickly seconds pass

the hands gone round

and we’ve still never found

in all our lives just what we are looking for

*****************************************

Don’t let anymore time pass without realizing your strength and your dreams because each second that passes is one that will never return.

Always be kinder than necessary for you do not know what obstacles others face.
