Life is full of beautiful things; don’t let them pass you by. People are beautiful things. When we die and leave the world with one less beautiful thing, does that mean it all wasn’t worth it? Life is so short, but it’s so extraordinarily long. So you can live like there’s no tomorrow, or you can look forward to the days on the front porch with the one you love, getting older every second.
Most people are afraid of death, afraid of dying. You should be absolutely mortified of death, and if you say you aren’t you’re lying. You shouldn’t be afraid of death because you might die, you will die. Be afraid of death for all the things you never did because you were too scared to try. Be afraid of every smile you never smiled and every kiss you never had. Be afraid of the love you never had because you were too nervous to give it a shot.
So just to recap:
-You are going to die.
-Be terrified of death, for the right reasons.
-Admit it, you’re afraid.
-Life is too short to give up on, but too long to throw away.
-Most importantly, if you’re reading this, you’re still alive.
