Live Like You're Dying Because you are. People start to do amazing things when they have a terminal illness, or a fatal diagnosis, but you don't need that. You know you will die. Everyone is mortal. One day you'll be dead, so isn't it beautiful to be alive? All the time you waste could be more beautiful memories. All the people you see, your friends - hold onto the ones you love and act gracefully towards them. You never know if you will see them again. All things can and will vanish. Where is your joy coming from? Things or friends? Material possessions or experiences? Death, the inanimate, or living, the spirited? I hope you see deep enough within yourself to believe in the things you want to do, the things you want to create. I hope you can use your time as a living spirit that shares with the world and makes it more beautiful.
