Time: Giver of Pain?

We all know that painful events in our lives subside with the distance of time from the "event" itself. The last few days I have also come to realize that time can add pain as well.

I don't get to see my Nanna too often these days. In fact, a year or two seems to pass easily in between meetings now. Today I realized as I sat beside her and held her hand in mine that time is not my friend. It is "time" that has aged her so. It is time, that will take her away. Indeed, this is life as we know it but tonight I am just very sad.

I wish I had more time.
