How the meaning of the word forever can change your life

How long is forever?

When you're a child everything seems to take forever
It takes forever to save five dollars
It takes forever to finish college
It takes forever to save for a house
When does that change
When does forever not take so long at all....
When do you learn the the true meaning of forever...
When do you learn that you thought you had forever...but forever no longer means unending happiness...it twists and it turns in an awful way ... you have outgrown your childish notion of forever

................When you lose someone you love...........

You mourn....You cry... You just don't understand

because

........You always thought you would have them forever......

Forever is a long, long time...an eternity, but forever in this life sometimes only lasts a few hours or a few short days. We may not have our loved ones physically with us forever, but we will have their memories with us always.

Susan,

Absolutely beautiful and thought provoking. How true, we always think everything is forever, than one day...it isn't.

That is so true. We always think we have forever with the ones we love, but in the end, it is so short. When you're waiting for something, it seems forever. When you're enjoying the moment, there is no forever!

Good, Susan. The longer you live the shorter your forever. And
the more farewells you have to say to the people you love. Now
you made me sad. But somewhere I'll find a laugh. -gene.
