Well, aren't you just a ray of sunshine and a box of good cheer? Dying since the day you were born? Excuse me, but what ever happened to living it up a little? Why so gloomy? Yes, everyone's going to die someday, but what about the here and now? What's so wrong about having a life while you, well, while you have a life?
Life is what you make of it. Sure, we only have so many breaths to take and, yes, there are only so many beats to a heart, but I've got a lot of living to do. I want to wake up in the morning and see the dawn of a new day. I want to smell the morning dew, see a thousand moon rises, run a marathon, watch the sunset by the ocean yet again or, heck, even just live a little, even if it's just for a little bit longer.
What is it that you're doing over there? Why I don't even call that living, no, it's more like a quiet existence. Eking out a quiet existence. Is that what you're doing? Is that what passes as life in your little corner of the world? Go on, grab life by the horns! Quit your day job. Dance in the rain. Send me a postcard that says, "Greetings from Madagascar!" Come on, you know you want to.
What's stopping you? Why hold back now? Is it really too late to dance like nobody's watching?
