Proj 31 of 365: overnight miracles

(05.10.09)

overnight, time crept in and changed everything.

seeds become flowering and fruit-bearing trees,

grown women at the peak of their lives become gray and old ladies

and cuddly, sweet and innocent little babies become grown men.

as with the case with my cuddly baby brother who i recall used to run around the house wearing papa's too big leather shoes, making huge, stamping sounds at each step he takes.

i used to whisper "stay a cute baby forever" but time, the overnight thief, crept in and did its thing on him - no exceptions even if i did my magic encantation of forever baby-dom.

but looking at time's masterpiece which turned out to be my brother, no qualms here. yeah, time molded him all right, did a transformation miracle over the years (not overnight) and he turned out more than ok. :)
