the word, 'before,' has the meaning of what is right in front of you, as well as the idea of something that happened in the past....thus it is a word with a beautiful duality, and with in itself carries such a powerful meaning: live each moment before it is too late and you can no longer...and cherish all you have right before you now, because you never know when it will all be gone, all gone before you can even blink, *poof* just like that...

buddha said, 'nothing is forever except change'...so accept that, and live within the changes...because, that is life, live it here and now in this moment before it all ends, before it all changes and goes away

besides time moving on, change is the only constant, the only guarantee in life...i can only hope, as much as humanly possible, the changes turn into a positive in my life

before you take that next step into the next moment, recognize what was before, but be present with what is before you in the here and now...and, honor each moment before all else, before it is all gone
