Description: This was really difficult for me to do, I've been working on it for 3 weeks but it's done. I am really out of my comfort zone with this, I NEVER thought I would do a LO about me. In the upper corner is a list, I have it below. I did journal on the back of the LO and that is below also. I'm sure some of you can relate to the passage of time. I'm counting this as #1 of the 100 challenge. TFL! ~~Whoops! I noticed the top is cut off just a tad here not IRL though :)

On the eve of my 50th birthday I cried and wondered where in the hell all of those years went to. I remember when my dad turned 50 and he said "I'm 50. More than half of my life is over and I've done nothing." I never wanted to feel that way but sometimes I do. Then I thought about all of the events and changes that have happened during my life and was totally amazed. Events that I lived through but the kids today will only read about in history books. Then there's all of the changes and inventions that affect the way we live our lives and I realized the past 50 years haven't been so bad after all.
But I still cry.
