Stay

 “Come, sit by my side. Stay awhile. Tell me about your life.”  These are words I long to say to my best friend who died way too young.  I long to sit with my grandparents and listen about their lives through the wisdom I’ve acquired with age.

     Often, we flit from one thing to another.  Never staying in the moment where real life happens.  Time passes quickly.  Moments are lost.  Never to be regained.  So....come, sit by my side.  Stay while we have this moment.  Today.  Please, stay.
