I never believed in my lifetime that I would experience something like covid. I did get one vaccination; I won’t get another. I did get covid or so they say, and it wasn’t any more than a light flu for me, but I do know people that know people that have died from covid. But I’m not here to talk about covid, nor about any disease or cancer although I know people very close to me that have died from cancer. I’m here to talk about living.
Life in the big scheme of things is so very short and fragile. I, myself, have taken it for granted and have allowed years and years to pass me by. So much of my youth. We are only as young as this day gives us. We don’t get younger, we get older and with age comes eventually death, there is no cure. I have often said that we are born to die. But I do believe that what happens in the middle is vitally important. I desperately want to reach people with a message of life, with a message to live now because there is no guarantee of your tomorrow. Live those dreams and passions. Don’t put them off till next year. We have one shot at this life for God’s sake people make the most of it.
Since there is no cure then let me ask you a question. If you knew you had one month, or one year to live would you waste time not living and just going through the motions? Watch more TV, fall asleep on the couch, entertain people that don’t really give a rats’ behind, just for some examples. Or would you get out and get going? What I’m trying to say is; so much time goes by like we have all the time in the world and well, we truly don’t. Life is short and since there is no cure to this thing called life and it WILL eventually end, I implore you to get out in the world and see it, explore it, live the journey instead of letting it pass you by. What is there truly to be afraid of? Failure? Embarrassment? Come on now, you won’t be saying that on your death bed. What you will be saying is I wish I would have.
There is no cure but there is a better way to live. Take a breath, take a step and go forth to experience the amazing gift of life you do have. See ya on the journey.
