It’s hard to catch up with what you’ve missed


Time rushes by so unmercifully fast that it doesn’t give us a chance to accomplish everything we plan.
Life is like a marathon. At first it seems endless, and you think you’ve got all the time in this world. But as soon as you approach the finish line you start regretting of all you could have done but hadn’t.
The most difficult thing to do is to catch up with time. It goes fast, and it only goes forward. You can’t wind it back, unfortunately… I guess, I’d give anything for a device that would wind time back. How much could have been done, how many plans would have been accomplished.
As for me I’ve lost a good deal of precious time and opportunities. I regret I didn’t develop any talent when I was a small kid. I wish I had mastered a musical instrument or attended dance or drawing classes. My childhood was a calm and restful period. And it was wasted. I wish I could have done something meaningful. However there is no use crying over spilt milk… Of course, I’m not an old wreck yet, and I can as well do it now. However, so much precious time was wasted, and it can’t be denied. That’s what I feel sorry for.
The thing it’s just impossible to catch up with what we’ve missed. To avoid the unjustified time loss, one should not sit open-mouthed and wait that someone would give them what they dream of but put thoughts into action. Perhaps, then time will even yield you a little bit.
 Still we have to keep in mind that once we’ve lost time, we won’t be able to get it back.
