Last Friday evening our family went over to the Torgerson's and had dinner with their family and with the Rockley's. Some of you reading this may not know who I am referring to. However, more of you do know who I am talking about when I say I had dinner with Deana and Susan from my Shocker days. Yes, we had a little shocker basketball reunion and our families got to hang out.
What really struck a cord with me the most that evening is that life goes by SO FAST!! As we were sitting around the dinner table(of course talking about things the guys could care less about because they had no idea what we were talking about), I realized that it seemed like yesterday that Susan and I would sit in our duplex and talk about life together and that Deana and I would discuss that coach needed to just start her and let me come off the bench. But that was over 10 years ago.
The Bible describes it so clearly when it talks of life on this side of heaven being like a vapor. Remember when you were a kid and you would breathe on the car window and draw something in the condensation. But all too often the condensation would disappear too quickly and the picture would be gone. That is the word picture that comes to my mind when I think about really how fast life goes by... Deana and Susan thanks for the reminder for me not to waste my time here!! And thanks for hanging out with me and my family! The two of you will always be special people in my life :)
