As the linear time flows, signs of reformatting due to gravity, both the magnetic kind as a well as the weight of our emotion baggage accumulations and the "wait" of the attitudes of “someday I will have time for me" inevitably appear as signatures of a life well-lived.
Laugh lines can be evident from days spent laughing and enjoying the golden rays of sunshine, along with other lines of our life adventures as souvenirs of the roads we’ve traveled.
