There Isn't a Whole Lot of Time...
There's only two truths in this world:
You are born; You will die.
There isn't a whole lot of time really...
But what about in between?
How could we ever be expected to live our lives to the fullest with so little time?
But maybe that is the flaw of being human..
All we ever want is more..
We never stop and look around, just gather in what we see, live life.
Personally, I think life has little to do with what other people think of you,
But rather more importantly,
what you think of yourself.
Because there's only two truths:
You are born; You will die.
And there isn't a whole lot of time..
So laugh, play, make mistakes.
But remember,
If every person showed one act of kindness to another person,
We'd actually have a nice day.
We spend too much time doing things that make ourselves unhappy.
Things that make others unhappy.
But the real shame,
The true crime,
Is the fact I won't appreciate all the wasted time until I'm older.
Until I have no use for time anymore.
Until my body is no longer capable of the endless possibilities I wasted away.
But when I look back on my life,
I hope I'm not disappointed.
I hope I lived fully.
