Sometimes, I feel I want to go back in time... Not to change things, but to feel a couple of things twice.. Sometimes, I wish I was a Baby for a while... Not to be walked in the pram but to see my Mother's smile Some times, I wish I could go back to school... Not to become a child but to spend more time with those friends, I never met after school.. Sometimes, I wish I could be back in college... Not to be a rebel but to really understand what I studied Sometimes, I wish I was a fresher at my work... Not to do less work but to recall the joy of the first pay cheque Sometimes, I wish I could marry again all over... Not to change the partner but to 'feel' the ceremony better Sometimes, I wish my kids were younger.... Not because they grew fast but to play with them a bit more Sometimes, I feel I still had some more time to live... Not to have a longer life but to know what I could give to others Since the times that are gone can never come back, let's enjoy the moments as we live them from now on, to the fullest.. Let's Celebrate our Life - Every Moment, Every Day! 🎉🎊🎈💃🏿

Sometimes I Wish (Poem)

Do not gentle into that good night (Dylan Thomas)
Do not go gentle into that good night Dylan Thomas - 1914-1953 Dylan Marlais Thomas, born October 27, 1914, in South Wales, was the archetypal Romantic poet of the popular American imagination Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. "Do not go gentle into that good night" is a line referred too often in the 2014 movie "Interstellar". In the 2014 movie Interstellar, the poem is used repeatedly by Michael Caine's character Professor John Brand, as well as by several other supporting characters. In the same movie, leading actors Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway are sent into hypersleep with the final words "Do not go gentle into that good night." In the deluxe edition of the film's soundtrack, actors John Lithgow, Ellen Burstyn, Casey Affleck, Jessica Chastain, Matthew McConaughey, and Mackenzie Foy recite the poem with a soft vocal accompaniment scored by Hans Zimmer, the composer of the film's soundtrack.
