Where's the line between living and dying? They say we start to die the moment we leave our mother's womb. So if that's the case...when is the moment we start living? Truly we aren't really living when we're infants? When we can't control what happens to us on a day-to-day basis? Actions and decisions controlled by our guardians, with the "thought" that what THEY are doing is in the best interest for us? No. That can't be when we begin to truly live.
So When?
Why do people go through their whole lives feeling as if they have never lived? Never really getting to feel what life can truly offer. What it feels like to experience fear, love, and excitement. All those feelings that create the things we remember forever. Memories. People go through the 24 hours a day gives us so often and never realize that these are precious moments and memories that we will never get again. Wasted time that ultimately will not sustain a permanent place in our brains that will cause us to look back and say, "...remember that time?"
I really believe that fear is one of the main factors of us not being able to truly enjoy this thing we call life. God only gives us one shot at this thing and although many people laugh at Drake and his "Motto", it really is something that we should incorporate into our lives. Now of course in no way am I insinuating that we go out here and try and kill ourselves with the thought that there is no tomorrow. Or try and live so recklessly and carefree that we forget to perserve our lives to the best of our abilities....No, of course not. I love my life too much, jail and being shot are not in my immediate life plans. But at the same times you should never look up and feel regret. As long as we have air in our bodies we have any opportunity to make a memory and make a change to our lives.
The biggest thing we must do is live life and have no regrets. We don't have the answers to this life puzzle. Anybody who says otherwise is LYING! You only have one shot at this thing and you don't wanna look back at your one shot and think,
"If I could do it all over again..."
I'm sure we all know somebody who's uttered those words. But as long as your have breathe in those lungs you still have opportunity!
