Take a beat…..take another one…
Realization…
It usually comes at a price
One that is mainly prepaid by those around you
Known and unknown
When the dust settles and the ramifications have become clear
That is when we realize and it brings about fear
Fear of loss
Lost time
Lost people
Loss of doing things we enjoy with the people we love most
Therefore, take a beat once in awhile and realize what you have…what you hold
And spend valuable time with the ones that are close
