Reminders that time waits for no one…

[Fyrefox]

It can be a sobering reminder of time’s passage if we consider how long it’s been since notable events, or the age of yesterday’s celebrities.

For example, Michael Jackson, the superstar of the 1980’s, would now be 66 years old had he lived…

What facts of people or events lead you to remember that that the world is moving on?

We knew a lot of people in our lifetimes. When we were born, there were a lot of people around us that were born in the 1800s.

When I was young, there were people alive who were former slaves. That made a great impression on young me.
