Question:

Stephen Crane and Willa Cather (talk about your odd couples) met briefly. He died shortly after at 29, I think

She was editing some of his writings. She was appalled(prim proper Nebraska gal) by his lack of punctuation. He said he didn't have the time for it. He was right. Shortly after he died of TB. Do you ever feel that time is your enemy; that you have only so many years to make a difference?

Answer:

To Kill A Mockingbird is my widespread out of those video clips! ineffective night Cowboy and The wonderful Couple are large too! i've got no longer seen Psycho and The Hustler. The Graduate became into basically ok.
Due to my present situation, I have thought about this many hours. Many days. Many months. Time, or the lack of it, is generaly considered the enemy. But there are situations that the less of it can be a blessing. None of us can ever know which we will wish for. Until that time comes.
Definitely....... I guess since my mother died at an early age, I keep expecting it will happen to me as well. I don't think I react like Stephen Crane though..... I think instead of writing it all down quickly for people to read, i tell people everything and I fear in that way, whatever legacy I have to pass on will never be remembered. Time passes so quickly. I can't believe my daughter will be going to high school when I just remember walking her into kindergarten the other day. Is time my enemy? Not so much my enemy...... but a reminder of sooooooo much I need to do and want to do. A signal. At least I made it longer than 29. Let's hope I have a whole lot longer...... but seriously...... someone has GOT to make me write it all down!!!
Wow. What a well-read intelligent question. I had forgotten that I had ever heard of Willa Cather. I really wish I did feel, or had ever felt, that I only have so many years to make a difference. Maybe I wouldn't waste my time so much. I think I feel now that it's too late to start. #sigh#
