I have been reminded this week that I am in the time of my life. A few things brought this on.
- My wife is away for the week and I am taking care of our 3 boys solo
- I am spending more time with my kids (which is great!)
- I am working everyday in and on my business for a bit (not as much as usual for the above reason)
- I am being present around my kids and reflecting on that
- And boys will be boys (and how!)
I was driving with the boys from an appointment this afternoon. As is typical I was getting questions from the older two at random intervals while they were all watching a DVD (Ah yes, modern technology in cars—where was that when I was a kid. All we had was MadLibs). The movie happened to be “Bugs Life“—one of the many genius movies created @ Pixar. The questions were about “Do grasshoppers have wings?” and the like.
The movie happened to be at the end and the Randy Newman song “The Time Of Your Life” was playing in the background as I was driving home. The chorus says. “It’s the time of your life, so live it well.” The mountains were off in the distance with the sun setting. The golden hills were rolling by and it was just one of those moments when you realize “this is it!” This is the time of my life. It was really cool to be that present to it.
Even though I get lost in the moments of ‘stress’ and the rat race day-to-day, being present to my kids and their questions and comments, the scenery passing by outside, and then the song was the icing on the cake.
It is the time of your life, so live it well.
