Life Can Change in The Blink of an Eye

Do not get too comfortable. The next minute can be very different than the last.

The Blink Of An Eye

Life can change in the blink of an eye

From the minute we are born

To the minute we die

One minute you’re going about your day

Then things can change so drastically

From one minute to the next

Life is put to the test

Why do bad things happen?

Why do good people get hurt?

So much sadness in the world

Destruction, devastation and disasters

Why do our loved ones hurt us?

When so much sadness is about

It makes me want to cry

It makes me feel so much doubt

Why can life not be simple?

Without the need to cry and shout

Life can change in the blink of an eye

From the minute we are born

To the minute we die

    Nina…No truer words were ever spoken…we have no idea from one minute to the next what the next minute might have in store for us…Scripture even tells us that we will be changed in the twinkling of an eye…Are we equipping ourselves for what is coming next? Sometimes things change so quickly that there is no time for change or preparation of what is happening next…I like this one and voted to say so…thanks and take care
