We are all derived from different walks of life. Life can only be understood more clearly through hindsight. Life is a precious gift and it can be short or long. Some discover their purpose, others not so much. Filling life's moments with plans, friendships, love and lessons learned are meaningful. The clock begins ticking from conception, and it is our purpose to live our best lives. Our lifetimes are measured in phases such as birth, childhood, adolescent, adulthood, middle age, old age, death and all of special milestones in between. Every moment in life is an opportunity to learn and grow.
