life is just a slide show of pictures passing you by as you turn to view a fading landscape that is the past and when we turn back we find that the present has left us behind. Life doesn't wait for us to be ready to live. All we can do is continually live in the moment always jumping, feet first without a care for what will catch us. Having faith that the rocks are far enough beneath the surface that we will escape unscathed and in the event that they aren't then dust yourself off bandage yourself up and run full speed onto life's next moment. We are told that Everyone's life must come to the point when the music dies and springs flowers loose their color. That melancholy monochromatic emptiness that comes from a life spent looking backwards is a pain that does not have to be felt. Sing loud. Take chances. Break down. Fix yourself up. Dance in the pouring rain on a Sunday afternoon. Listen to your heart. Love with a passion so intense that the fires of the sun seem cool in comparison. Dare to dream. Seize the day. Most importantly trust blindly. When your moment draws to an end close your eyes and rest knowing that you truly lived.
