"Every day has been so short, every hour so fleeting, every minute so filled with the life I love that time for me has fled on too swift a wing"

He is expressing his gratitude for the life he enjoys and how it has filled his days, hours, and minutes with joy. He is lamenting the fact that time passes too rapidly and that he wishes he might slow it down. He is conveying the idea that life is valuable and ought to be enjoyed and delighted in. He is likewise suggesting that life must be lived to the maximum and that we need to take advantage of every moment. This quote is a reminder to value the life we have and to take advantage of every day. It is a reminder to take some time to delight in the little things and to make memories that will last a lifetime.
