speak louder than words.
There are places where I should have been, and yet could not. So much can happen in a day that would otherwise pass by unwittingly. But this is life - full of moments infused with so much weight, so much importance, and others that pass by monotonously. How we carve up our time and recognise those moments is a testament to our sensitivity to the ebb and flow of life; it is a testament to our ability to juggle our family, friends, and work.
I cannot resinsert myself into this past weekend, into one day. And again circumstances prevent me from being where I am not needed in these immediate days, but where I wish I could be. The irony to all this is that you cannot change things in a single moment. Time prevents you. You have to wait for your turn to 'be there', to know when, to know how. Disappointment is painful. Even more painful is when you felt that imminent disappointment and could not prevent it. Still more is the hurt and tiredness of the one you care for.
I have to wait two long days before I can even act on the changes I have committed to in my heart.
