Fortunately, times moves on

Sometimes I'm almost overcome with waves of nostalgia, longing for just another moment with my children before they're all grown up, or fearing how fast it's all going by--their lives, my own life--while I was busy doing dishes or frittering some time away on something, or being angry or moody, and not living in the moment. But I was reading a collection of essays and came across this phrase:

Fortunately, time moves on.

Now, that's very helpful. Recast the passage of time as something that I welcome. Focus on what is healing and good about time going by. Embrace.

Fortunately, time moves on.
