Week Word: Fugacious
I am the host for this week’s word and it is FUGACIOUS, meaning Lasting but a short time, fleeting. Please take a look at other bloggers who also have submitted a creative take on this word: John, Katy,June and Mary.
If you start to think about how many things in our short life are fleeting, lasting only a short time, it seems that it could almost be anything. Looking at one’s life in comparison to the vast cosmos of space and time, our life itself is fugacious. But taking a closer more timely look, two things come to mind, flowers(don’t I always think of them?) and children.
Spring flowers especially seem to come and go rather quickly. We spend so much time buying the bulbs, planting them in the fall, and then they pop up sometimes only for days, many times weeks.

Then there is the fleeting aspect of childhood. Appreciate your children or grandchildren every second you are with them, because their childhood is fugacious.
Have a donut together!

Run around and play tag!

Or just hang out together…
so cute
Life can be fugacious, but stop be grateful and slow it down!

Hi I'm Joye!! 
I will join in. I will have my post up tomorrow. (Saturday)
I will, also, be glad to host next week.
I agree! Kids have some of the best short but oh so sweet moments.
Thanks June, got you in the post, looking forward to next week!
I love your daffodil and the beautiful children. Mine have all fugated into adults except one who have fugated into a grumpy teen who plays beautiful piano. (I doubt fugated is a real word; I made it up–meaning–slipped away.)
What a great post and oh so true. The painting and the photographs are wonderful. Children are our treasures and become our treasured memories for as you say childhood is fugacious.
