You have Youth but you waste it
You have Time but you squander it
You have people who love you
Friends who embrace you
Family who know you
But you ignore the gold mines that surround you
Choosing junk, trash and folly instead
And your skin is smooth
Your teeth are strong
Your ponytail is thick
You can touch your toes
You can leave the house without makeup and
You believe all your dreams will come true
And at the exact point you realize those days are gone,
You instantly realize what a gift they were.
What do you call that moment in time?

Help us to remember that our days are numbered,
and help us to interpret our lives correctly.
Set your wisdom deeply in our hearts… — Psalm 90:12 TPT
