Life isn't always the best thing you have, but you still have it. It's cruel and painful and never thinks about how you feel or what you want...
Life is something we all take for granted, even those of us with religion or those that thank every day. Why live if all you will do is work? Why work if all you will do is die?
The answer is simple, and yet everyone disregards it... because we can. We can work, so we invented things. We can play, so we interacted. We all are here for a reason and those of us that seem to die too soon are those that had the greatest and most powerful destinies, not because they were weak and couldn't make it... but because they created such a strong ripple in those few they knew, those few they trusted, that they changed your life. They changed everyone's lives. There are school shootings almost every week and we hear about it more and more because they affect us harder and harder. The more losses we know the more we feel, the worse things get the stronger we become...
Life is a game. You are the main character. We don't have second chances or respawns on this planet with these people... so cherish them. Cherish life, because this is the only one you will get and know. Even if you aren't strong enough...
You are.
