As Life Progresses

When we were young, everything seemed better to us. Santa was real, everyone seemed nicer, and war was just a scary story about the real world. But now, that is not so. As we've grown up into the people we are today, we have lost our innocence, and the evils of this world really do afflict us now. Each day is a new challenge to us, sometimes we pass this challenge, and, sometimes we fail this challenge.
When I was young I believed in Santa, and the Tooth Fairy, and the Easter Bunny, and other fantasical creatures. Now that is not so. When I learned that those things were non-existent, the world seemed less bright,..it grew dimmer to me.
Our world is completely different than it was when we were children. The government is constantly interferring with our lives, we have to work for money, and not everyone is as nice as we thought. We get into relationships that can hurt or help us,we have to manage our time, and we have to deal with the pressures of this world.
Life may be different now, but I love my life, I enjoy it, and I live every day to its fullest. I'm not afraid to try new things, and I fear nothing,..except God. We must make the most of our time here, in the realm of the mortals, and we must be thankful for each day, because you could die at any given time.
So even though the world isn't as it used to be to us, we must push forward with our lives. Dwell on the past, but not in sadness for what once was. Remember the good times that you've had, and most importantly, enjoy every minute.

I commented on "Worsworth Today", by Daniel Watter.
