There will come a day When you will run out of second chances. There will come a day When everything you've ever known will be gone in an instant. There will come a day When disaster strikes          And you can't do a dang thing about it. We all have become so prone to the idea of disaster. We think that it will always happen to someone else. But it can happen to you at any moment. Your loved ones:          Gone. Your possessions:           Gone. Your life as you know it:           Gone. In the blink of an eye, Everything can disappear. You are not safe from the evil of the world. If anything, You are at your most vulnerable point. In merely seconds, You could get cancer, Or a tornado could strike your house, Or you, Or a loved one, Could die. This is not a call to scare you, Or make you run away. This is just to make you realize how special life is. And how you should cherish it, Every single day. But most importantly,           Remember:                              You can not run from disaster.                              Disaster will strike you.                              Just be prepared to take it.                              And know that it was all for                                                                     The Better.

Disaster
There will come a day When you will run out of second chances. There will come a day When everything you've ever known will be gone in an instant. There will come a day When disaster strikes          And you can't do a dang thing about it. We all have become so prone to the idea of disaster. We think that it will always happen to someone else. But it can happen to you at any moment. Your loved ones:          Gone. Your possessions:           Gone. Your life as you know it:           Gone. In the blink of an eye, Everything can disappear. You are not safe from the evil of the world. If anything, You are at your most vulnerable point. In merely seconds, You could get cancer, Or a tornado could strike your house, Or you, Or a loved one, Could die. This is not a call to scare you, Or make you run away. This is just to make you realize how special life is. And how you should cherish it, Every single day. But most importantly,           Remember:                              You can not run from disaster.                              Disaster will strike you.                              Just be prepared to take it.                              And know that it was all for                                                                     The Better.
