My favorite music lyrics comes from the song "Don't Blink" by Kenny Chesney.

"Don't blink. You just might miss your babies growing like mine did. Turning into moms and dads next thing you know your 'better half' Of fifty years is there in bed. And you're praying God takes you instead. Trust me friend a hundred years goes faster than you think So don't blink."

--Kenny Chesney

I get chills every time I hear it... the music is awesome and the lyrics just touch your heart- especially when you have children.

Time moves fast and most people don't realize it until it is too late... this song makes you realize that you're missing the most important things in life if you are constantly going. It is taking the cliche "stop and smell the roses" and puts music and beautiful lyrics to it.

This song can make me stop in my tracks and I realize that nothing is more important than the people you love, that making memories for people to remember you by is more important than anything is. After all, you can't take anything with you when you go.

So, now, I work less, play more and have hopefully given my children fun memories of me so that when they're grown they will look back with fond memories and realize how much I love them.
