We are deep within the cold of winter and the
morning sky has never seemed so clear. Yet, with this clarity comes a sense of
darkness.
We wake up each and every morning in a world of hate. We wake up and are surrounded by people that are not appreciative of the gift of life that we are all given.
Let's step back for a moment.
You are going to die. Sounds pretty shitty, right? Well, I'm sorry, but it is inevitable. And it is about time you accept this. Because we all share this thing. We all share the reality of an impending death. We are all dying. Right now. All part of a cycle of birth, life, decay, death, all part of the washing machine tumble of chaos and order, structure and entropy, light and dark.
None of us—not a single one—are promised tomorrow.
We share that because we share the possibility of death. But we share something else, too.
We share This Fucking Moment Right Fucking Here.
This one. The one with the masking tape across it and the permanent marker signifying:
NOW. We all get now. We all get the moment in which we exist.
Now, take another step back. From what you can control. There are a lot of things happening in your life right now that you can't control. The things that worry you. Maybe you can adjust these things. Give them a nudge. But. The bottom line is you do not have full control of some things in this world.
But you do have control over you. And you have that control right now. Find something to motivate you. Heck, let death motivate you. Let your inevitable demise push you forward, onward.
You can't swim but you're jumping in the deep end. Dive head first into life with no regrets.
We're done taking steps back.
We're done holding back. Don't hesitate. Because our generation has a certain fire. And that fire is in our blood.
Hold your torch high, because it all starts here.
