In the Blink of an Eye

There's an expression many use when something happens unexpectedly quick. People will say "that happened in the blink of an eye." Lately, I have become too familiar of the feeling that everything happens in the blink of an eye. Sometimes, you have to stop and take a look around at what you have while you have it and fully appreciate it. Nothing really lasts forever, whether we like it or not. We learn to deal with the bad circumstances that happen, and enjoy the good ones that cross our path. I've learned again that you can't prevent the bad circumstances from happening, no matter how much you want to. You can make the best out of the situation at hand and that's all you can really do. The rest is up to fate.
