So the other day I was in the hospital with a family member. Hospitals creep me out! After a nurse came running over to me and asked if I was the one there in need of my meds then proceeded to hand me a cup of pills. I decided to just wait in the waiting room and read a magazine. And that's when I saw her, the saddest elderly woman in the world who was soon to have me question life and my own existence. She was there for some stitches, her white hair was caked with her own blood. Apparently making herself a tuna sandwich went horribly wrong. She looked up at me from her wheel chair removed the blood soaked towel from her head and with the saddest most desperate look I have ever seen, said just yesterday I was young and beautiful like you. now look at me WOW. I froze, I couldn't move. since I past the age of 21 time has just been flying by one day I woke up and I was 29.tomorrow I'm going to wake up and be 79!! Where does all the time go?.so instead of bursting into tears right in front of her I headed outside, my head down trying hard to pull it together. Then I spotted a caterpillar, and then another right on the sidewalk some of them were all ready dead from people stepping on them so one by one I picked up the remaining caterpillar's and removed them from the sidewalk and placed them in the grass. After rescuing several I came to realized that yeah tomorrow I might wake up and look at myself in the mirror and say how did time pass to quickly, it was just yesterday I was young and beautiful I hope in that moment I remember the caterpillars and how I extended there life's if even
for one more day. Cuz in the end being old isn't that bad, it's gotta be better than being a mushy spot on the sidewalk.
