I finally understand why people say life is too short.

yanrwtb:

With each instant, each breath, each thought, dies a period of your life that can never be taken back. And while that period dies, a new one is born, and so on and so forth. Life is compiled of this infinite cycle of moments expiring and moments beginning. Each second that passes by is a memory that can’t be relived and/or replicated. Even now, as you’re reading this, that was just a memory that was created. And it’s mind fucking how with each second and moment, that’s the youngest you’ll ever be, and how the only time you really have is the present because within the next second, you’ll change.

Time allows us leniency. It allows us time to be slothful and neglectful because we think we’re granted so much of it. Hell, it’s the one interminable thing in our lives. But truth is, it’s not eternal. It doesn’t last forever. Because it doesn’t stop. It never repeats itself. It continues, and continues, and continues. And as it proceeds, if you remain in the past and don’t look to the present and the future, the more moments you’ll lose and the more the moments will slip from your hands.

Every moment in your life, for as long as you exist, is an opportunity waiting to be taken. Don’t let it go to waste.
