Life Happens

What is time and does it really matter? We all create our schedules based on what we have to do, what we want to do, and what we want to accomplish. Then life happens, and then the time we planned on using for things we wanted or needed to do just seems to disappear. How come when we are young, time just cannot seem to pass by quickly enough? Then when we are older, time just flies by and we cannot seem to catch up. It's not fair. I cannot understand why the concept of time seems to change as I age. I'm still very active and competent, and I don't think I've slowed down that much. Yet time becomes more and more elusive. Yet according to my Catholic faith, time will be eternal and infinite once I pass from this earthly life. I cannot fathom what that means. Maybe some day I'll understand? Maybe some day I'll catch on my "to do" list? Maybe???
