"What's a Lifetime?"
Jake KincaidThe children of the comic strip The Family Circus can sometimes wrestle with the most profound subjects. In a recent installment, the following conversation occurs. "What does a lifetime consist of Billy?""It's usually a lot of ‘yesterdays,'
no ‘tomorrows' and a part of a ‘today.'" How quickly a lifetime passes. The only portion in our grasp and control at any one moment is simply a "part of a ‘today.'" The old adage "Live one day at a time" is true. It might be even closer to the truth to say, "Live a part of a day at a time." Taken together they are what make up a lifetime.
