The best advice I can give you
Is that nothing lasts forever.

Because one day you're going to be dead and one day maybe long after that, but sometimes not, the idea of you is going to die. People are going to forget who you are and one day someone will say your name for the last time.

That's scary but at the same time it gives me peace.
Peace to know that every mistake I make,
Will at one time never matter.

Some time from now every thing, great or small, will not matter.

I was just one mark on the world and one day I'm going to fade away.

Just as the rest of us.
Sometimes when I'm laying out stargazing, I say everyone's name that I know who has died. Just so the idea of them can live on.
