The Passage of Time

“In rivers, the water that you touch is the last of what has passed
and the first of that which comes; so with present time.”
– Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

I found this quote on  http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/l/leonardo_da_vinci.html

I rather liked it.   I don’t want to wish my life away, but I don’t mind saying goodbye to January.  Now roll on springtime.  According to the Irish calendar February 1st was the first day of Spring.  The temperature doesn’t feel like it but we do have daffodils blooming – that is definitely a good sign.
