One of the saddest truths in your entire life will be knowing that nothing lasts forever. The skin you live in will deteriorate and the organs in your body will soil and the people in your life will come and go like fashion trends that you never even paid attention to. We are constantly progressing with every new step forward we take and as we build into something stronger than ourselves, we often owe that to the people we've crossed paths with time and time again. A friend recently asked me why it's so hard trying to move on, because I guess people sometimes get confused and are under the impression that I have any better answer than the man standing behind the curtain. Your heart will ache and your bones will crush and once you've melted all the tears into your favorite pillow, you'll rebuild again and become better than before. There's always that sense you feel when you know something is about to end. Something changes in the atmosphere and suddenly the clock ticks louder in your ear in a way that it never had before. Time becomes the master and you can't help but fall slave. Nostalgia seeps in when the finish line is still too far ahead to see, but the only thing you can think about are the memories of yesterday when morning has yet to even come. What happens tomorrow will happen tomorrow. We don't know what it will be or what the outcome will bring, but today is not over. Our lives are not over. If you can remember this, you'll be just fine.
