#489; the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn
Saturday, October 2, 2010
two things, I guess- life on earth really can be reclaimed from us at any one time, regardless of what we’ve done here on earth and our merit and our physical achievements. an astar scholar, a 21 year old med school student-death does not discriminate. and while I can say the fragility of life is what makes it precious to all of us- honestly I think we’re much too alive to ever be conquered by an errant lorry driver in the dead of night. so our bodies are punctured, they fail to function, and our souls can no longer interact with the physical world in the ways they’re used to doing- but I know they’re still there, still existing. and that’s an incredibly comforting thought (:
I don't know how I'm going to do this justice.
It scares me how everything we take for granted, or even the things we spend every day treasuring, can be taken away forever. That you can find the people that mean the world to you, that you want to spend the rest of your life with, that you wouldn't imagine life without, that you'd do everything to keep by your side, and they'd be your happily ever after, but not
for happily ever after.
