Seems like only yesterday I lazed around dreaming about my future. I still recall the lazy summer days spent dreaming, walking and thinking about life. I didn't know then about the world and all its troubles. My mind was free. I was a child. Being with my little niece, Aydia, awakened those feelings in me. She is so young, and the world is a free and friendly place to her. She doesn't know about all that is waiting in the wings to drag her away from that carefree existence.
Like the slow, relentless beat of the drum, summer wears on and soon passes. For some of us, the ending of summer means a new chapter in life. Aydia is experiencing that new chapter now and it's a good thing. Yet, sometimes I long for time to stop. It seems that it goes way too fast. I hardly have time to take it all in.
