      I actually have never heard this song before, but I was trying to find the perfect song in regards to my grandmother and grandfather’s hundredth birthdays and the family they created with six sons five daughter-in-laws, 1 son-in-law, 15 grandchildren, 10 in law, grandchildren, and 17 great grandchildren! We are truly a blessed family, and this song is perfect to play a photo montage of my grandparents when they were younger, and my dad and his brothers when they were younger too, the brothers getting married and then flashing photos of the grandchildren when they were babies and finally ending it withthe grandchildren getting married and having their own babies to finish it off with one huge family picture of all of us! I love this song. I’ve been playing it on repeat❤

      So true ! I remember when I was 19, and my mother told me, my cousin was turning 25, and I thought that was so old. It seemed like it was just a couple years ago when I said that. I don’t know where the time went but now I am 70. To me, it seems like years goes by like months . You want to slow down time but you can’t.

    my Dad used to always play this song when I was 6. I remember waking up from a nap and hearing the muted distant music coming from the back deck. It was this song. I went out to the back deck and opened my door to the most beautiful orange and pink sunset I’ve ever seen. I’m 21 now and every time I hear this song it takes me back to that memory. Crazy how much these lyrics resonate with me now. Shouldn’t have blinked…

      Just getting out of your 20s and this starts getting onto perspective more and more. Friends go their own ways, you don't hear from people you thought you would talk to forever, and friends pass away. Life changes, and it happens quicker than you would ever even be able to imagine. The advice in this song could not be any more true.
      DON'T BLINK.
      Enjoy every last moment with friends, young love, and family. Because there's no way to tell you were in the good ole days until you've already left them. 😢

  • @hamrad645
    @hamrad645 3 роки тому +787

    I love this song! I am almost 76 years old, and this song really strums my heart strings. I lost my favorite grandpa in 1972, the second grandpa in 1974, my grandma in 1993. My mother-in-law died suddenly in 1989, my father-in-law in 1992. Then, in 1998 I lost my mom at the relatively young age of 71, my dad followed less than four short months later. I thought the losses couldn't get any worse, but then I lost the absolute love of my life, my husband of almost 41 years in 2004 at the ripe old age of 63. Then my two brothers, one at age 59 in 2013, the other in 2017. There have been other family that I loved dearly, too many to mention. Treasure each day as if it were your last, love your family and keep them close in your heart, tell them you love them. Whether your loved one passes away from a lengthy terminal illness or suddenly, you're never ready to lose them, to let them go. Truth is, we have absolutely no choice. But I know I will see my loved ones in Heaven. A friend of mine told me, when she had lost her mother, that we don't cry really for them, we cry for ourselves because we're going to miss the loved ones so much -- truer words were never spoken! I tell my son every day, multiple times each day, that I love him. Treasure the memories, for time is so fleeting. Most of all, cling to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in whom faith will carry you through anything.

    Lost my 98 year old grandfather about a week and a half ago. His decline came quickly, and he was taken before I knew it.
    Thankfully, about a month prior to his passing, we had the chance to talk for about two hours. He echoed the message of this video during our visit.
    He’d seen so many changes in this world. He was a proud WW2 veteran, and Purple Heart recipient.
    He was the strongest, most humble man I ever knew. A father of five, who worked two and three jobs when it was necessary. He finally retired for good at 83.
    But, what I respect most about my granddad was his relationship with Jesus. I know he’s in the presence of God, and seeing the face of Christ as I type this.
    The best man I ever knew, my hero, and my greatest example of a man:

    As a kid, you always thought that time passed slowly, but as you age time starts to go by faster and faster. From 3-14 takes 25 years to pass, 15-26 takes 8, 27-40 takes 4, and 40-death takes just seconds. You can't change time, you just have to fill what time you can with great memories.

    I just turned 59. Last year of my 50's. It really did go by like a blink. My girls are 36 and 34, I've got 2 sweet grandsons. My mind still feels like I'm in my 30's but my body puts that in check pretty fast lol. Do those things you've always wanted to do. You're not getting any younger. I always wanted to learn to fly a plane. I've taken my first lesson. I'll go scuba diving someday in the next couple of years in Iceland, where the two continents meet. My mom has been gone for 19 years tonight, and she didn't get to do a lot of the things on her list, time is a thief. Just do the things.

      That was the first episode of Doctor Who I ever watched, and this is the first song I ever listened to (not heard, listened). Life is funny.

    When my middle son got married (2007) he had us dancing to this song. I just cried the entire time. Today is my oldest son's 39th birthday and I just can't believe just how fast the years have gone by. I have always told my three son's that once you reach 21 the years just fly by! Now my Grandson is 16 and it has all started again. Thanks Kenny for such a beautiful song. It's still a favorite of mine....

    To be honest, country was never my favorite. My mom LOVED kenny Chesney. Kenny was her favorite, especially Dont Blink. Every since she passed in 2013 I have listened to this song every day. It's become my new favorite. Love you mom, life is too short.

    I’m only 25, but man how time marches on. The older I get the faster it goes. A quarter of a century. It feels like I could chuck a stone and it would land on my graduation day. 4 more years and I’ll be at my high schools class of 14’ 10 year reunion. And I haven’t done anything with that time. And yet, time marches on.

    A lot of truth in the song. I can relate. Here I am 77, when I hear this song I can't believe I'm this old already. I told myself when I turned 35 I was going to stay right there. and even now I still feel 35, but the old body says "Let's talk this over". When I go to bed at night I look at my wife of 54 years and I pray that God takes me instead when the time comes. I sing that every once in awhile at Karaoke and it means more to me than just a song.

    Don't Blink! Your not promised tomorrow. Make the best out of today. God is great! Beer is good and people are crazy! Live life without regrets forgive and forget. Life is too short to dwell on what you woulda, coulda, shoulda, did. Don't live in the past cause that past never see's the future. The poorest man is not the one without a nickel it's the one without a dream. Follow your dreams. Live for today! God bless.

    I remember listening to this at 29 after my father passed. My little sister passed at 29 3 years later. Now my mother lives with me. Enjoy family while you have them. Just about everyone is gone now. Just buried my last grandparent in February. Mid 30's and just about my entire family is gone. Life really does go by fast.

      I feel your every word. I lost my husband my kids my dad and then buried my sister last week. She was 32. I'm 36 I've got my brother and my mom that's it. No grandparents. Walk out the door as if it's your last time. This here today gone tomorrow world we live in. I watched my sister pass away in a tragic accident. She come to help me when I ran out of gas it happened on Sunday morning 11/13/22 and she was putting gas in my car and a reckless driver hit and killed her. You just never know when your time is up.
