A Short Time With Larry 12-30-2020 Shiff Khayyam
The Year 2020 is approaching its close. These few days left are to recall the good and the bad.
Over the years, I have known preachers to keep “Life Logs.” Truck Drivers and commercial pilots do the same about their professional careers. Noted Airline and General Aviation Pilot Barry Schiff stated this about the logbook.
“The saddest logbook entry, of course, will be our last. It will designate a time when the sun has set on your life in the air. The remaining blank pages will forlornly await the pen that no longer writes.” Barry Schiff, AOPA Pilot 11-2019.
The fictional Omar Khayyam wrote:
“The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit. Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word
of it.”
True, but Christ forgives.
Larry Lilly. Make today count.
