Time, Growth, Space

When I was younger, I feared growing up. I would watch the ocean, and fear that the water would be drained. I looked at the stars, and feared each one would disappear. I put my toes in the grass, and feared it would die as quickly as I would. I listened to music, and feared the creators would grow old and sick. I feared time, growth, space. now, I'm not so afraid. I watch the ocean, and appreciate the flowing water, the creatures inside it, changing as fast as we are. I put my toes in the sand, and appreciate each grain touching my skin. I listen to music, and appreciate the time and effort put into each note. I appreciate time, growth, space.
