It goes by fast.
I once saw a message carved into a cobblestone. It simply said:
“It goes by fast.”
These four words stopped me cold.
They were more than a reminder—they were a challenge.
Life moves quickly.
In a blink, kids grow up. In a flash, we grow old.
Put down your phone. Meet someone’s gaze. Step outside. Look at the stars.
Be here. Right now.
Because life does go by fast.
Don’t miss it.
P.S. Remember, you’re not late. In fact, you’re right on time.
