absolutely fragile

you know when you're little, you have no concept of time? you're not worried about getting old, dying, losing touch with people, figuring out what you're going to do with your life? then, unfortunately, the older you get, the more reality sets in and as you lose people along the way, you realize just how fragile life really is.

we're taught to not think about death, or dying, or anything tragic but rather enjoy life, the here and the now. and i completely agree with that attitude, but i mean, the reality is that anything can happen, anytime, and that's frightening. if we could live with the attitudes of children our whole lives -- i think that would be a great thing.

because in an instant, life can change as you know it. anything can happen, right? your life can turn upside down, in a minute. it's insane.
