Holding on to today

Mmm... would you believe that I'm already diarising events for 2011?

As a child - perhaps around eight years old - I remember saying to a little friend's mom how I was looking forward to the holiday, or something like that. She replied, "Don't wish your life away." It was only many years later that what she said made sense.

Now, as I'm putting in dates for events next year, I am planning to do a number of events, but I don't wish that they were here already because I'm still trying to hold on to today as it slips away.
