Why won’t the clock wait for me? It can’t stop ticking. My daughter kept staring at the clock and wishing it could wait for just a while. For once I felt that way. I wish it could wait a bit just before we stepped into the New Year. Maybe I was hoping for a grand […]
I wish I wrote more. I wish I had more time to do so. I wish I did a few more things. I wish my commitment to present tasks were better. Maybe I would have done better if… My closing thoughts as the year drew its closing curtains. Does this sound like you too? When […]
