The turn of the calendar and the start of another year. A good chance to look back at the year gone past and where the future might take us in 2015. A chance to share a few moving quotes about time by some folks smarter than I. We mark the start of the third calendar year since Will left us. Will would have the last two quotes funny, his ironic, dry sense of humor and his warm smile are some of the many things we miss about him. Well remember him this year as we go about our daily lives, as we gather with family and friends, as we serve the parents and kids in Brighter Tomorrows, as we meet with other Dads who ache for all those precious kids they have lost to cancer on a Dads Weekend camp out and hike where I hope we can raise some money for CureSearch for kids still fighting cancer. Will would want us to remember those kids and help them however we can. Time may dim some of the memories we shared, but the love he shined on all of us continues to burn brightly in our hearts throughout the coming year. Our duty is to preserve what the past has had to say for itself, and to say for ourselves what shall be true for the future. John Ruskin English critic, essayist, & reformer (1819 - 1900) Time is a cruel thief to rob us of our former selves. We lose as much to life as we do to death. Elizabeth Forsythe Hailey, A Woman of Independent Means Because life is so brief And time is a thief, when youre undecided And like a fistful of sand It can slip right through your hands Rod Stewart - Young Turks Lyrics The trouble with being punctual is that nobodys there to appreciate it. Franklin P. Jones Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so. Douglas Adams English humorist & science fiction novelist (1952 - 2001)
