when i was a big boy



there was a little boy who said when he becomes a big boy, he will do this and that and will be happy.and when he becomes a big boy he says that when he finishes college he will be happy.And when he finishes college he says that when he gets his first job he will be happy.And when he gets his first job he says that when he gets married,then he will be happy.And when he gets married he says when the kids get out of school he will be happy.And when the kids get out of he says that when he retires he will be happy.And when he retires .what does he see? he sees life has just gone by in front of his eyes!!!......source-you can win

There is really a wonderful lesson behind it. Always be happy with yourself because time passes very quickly. You never know when it how quickly it is passing and when you realize...its too late.
Nice post!!!
