about

Coming to terms with all the things life takes away is something I've always had a tough time with.

I'm trying to learn to appreciate the moment and everything I have right now, for truly, as life goes by and we lose things, we surely gain other things.

It's something I'm still learning.

Everything Comes and Goes
by David C. Maguire

The waves out on the ocean
Come a thousand miles
Just to crash on the shore at my feet
This sand that I am walking on
Was solid rock and once upon
A time it stood high on a mountain peak
Like the tide ebbs and flows
Everything comes and goes

There was a time
When I could stay up all night long
Then go to work and never miss a beat
I survived – I don’t know how
I hate to admit it now
Half my life’s spent trying to get some sleep
Life has its highs and lows
Everything comes and goes

No one outruns the past
The future always wins that race
Nothing lasts forever
But something always takes its place

I have lost some people
In my life who I have loved
Leaving me a heart so full of doubt
For everyone who meets their death
A newborn baby takes a breath
Is something that I finally figured out
Every time something dies something grows
Everything comes and goes

Most things are as they should be I suppose
Everything comes and goes

What’s coming around the bend no one knows
Everything comes and goes
