Life is like … Paper

Life is Like Paper

It is made by human beings

It is blank to begin with

Over time people leave their marks on it

It captures our stories and beliefs, as well as our creativity and expression

It can be strong, yet pliable

It has many uses and can be moulded

It can transform

It can be recycled

It can disintegrate slowly over time or go up in flames in a moment

When its gone, the stories and memories stay with us.

    That reminds me of an Andy Rooney quote:

    “Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes.”

    Sometimes I wonder where you get your ideas ~ they are perfectly brilliant 🙂 And yes, after reading this “When its gone, the stories and memories stay with us…” I wanted to go read an old book 🙂
