As we plunge into 2011, it becomes increasingly apparent that “recent” history is now completely relegated to 21st Century events.
With a full decade under our belt, (yes, the 21st Century stated January 1, 2001 but that’s another debate) we are now deep enough into the Millennium to look back at the 80’s and 90’s as the “good old days!”
Where does the time go? It doesn’t seem all that long ago that the Y2K debacle needlessly paralyzed many a New Year’s Eve celebration. And we don’t see blanks for dates on paperwork anymore that have “19___ “ for the year.
As we burrow deeper and deeper into time, at some point the realization occurs that these are only numbers counting off the sands of time! And the only meaning that they have is the significance that we deliberately choose to attribute to them.
Time marches on. And every day is as important as we make it!
