You have one chance to live your life to the fullest.
Maybe you'll live again one day.
But after you die, you'll never be you, the you you are right now.
So live your life to the fullest.
Do the things you've always wanted to do.
Because you never know you might die tomorrow.
So live every day like its your last day.
Enjoy the sound of silence outside on a cushioned swing.
Swinging back and fourth. Back and fourth. Back and fourth. Pop a **** huckleberry into your mouth. Savor the burst of sweetness that it yields.
Let the sun soak into your skin like taking an enjoyable bath. Enjoy the weather. Smell the nectar in the flower trees above you. Take a moment to look around you and to see the small little things around you. Take a moment to look at the birds and the butterflies. To see a crane- fly skid on  thin water puddles one inch deep. This is peace. This is not distress. You have one chance to live your life to the fullest.
Maybe you'll live again one day.
But you'll never be you, the you you are right now.
So live your life to the fullest.
Do the things you've always wanted to do.
Because you never know you might die tomorrow.
So live every day like its your last day.
