I was standing at the train platform, leaning up against the pillar as I usually do, when it occurred to me how easily one could step forward at just the right moment, into the face of a giant, speeding tin can.
Without even thinking about it, out of instinct, I took several steps backward.
Life is so fragile, people. It's something that needs to be guarded and enjoyed; nearly everything out there can and is trying to end it. Don't let it.
You only get one.
There are no mulligans.
No do-overs.
As long as I live, (which I intend be a very long time) I will never understand the choice some people make to purposefully shuffle off this mortal coil.
Life is for now. It's temporary. On a cosmic scale, it's a fucking nanosecond. A Planck time.
Life is a blip.
When you're dead, your going to be dead for at least as long as you weren't alive to begin with. And there are no parties to attend. No musings to ponder with those who went before you.
That being said, you, out there, if you're reading this (and I sincerely hope you are), know that I love you with all my heart, and I will for the rest of my blip.
