So Traci and I were having a conversation this morning about how fast this year has gone. It all started when I realized that we are less then 3 weeks away from 2015! As you might remember, I turned 50 earlier this year, so I mean really where has the time gone?

Here are the top 5 things I've learned in 2014.

5) I started out with nothing...and I still have most of it.

4) My wild oats have turned into All Bran.

3) I've finally got my head together...and now my body is falling apart.

2) My ship came in...and it rammed into the rocks.

1) I think more and more about the hereafter. I go somewhere for something and then wonder what I'm here after.

In all seriousness though, I'm thankful for the year I've had and try not to take time for granted. My advice to you in the new year? Remember to live it up! But, of course, don't live it up so high that you can't live it down.
