All those who lived before our birth

and all those who will live after our probable death

don't have a life quite like ours

One of rebirth

Rebirth of reality

Of priority, a rebirth of

what nature is really

I look at kids today

and worry what their wold is

going to be like in 10 years

And I'm still a kid!

I worry for my life

How unlikely it is we are here together

during this time in our history

Here now, let's preserve all the nature

in our lives as we have it

"Maybe in another life" why not this one?

I think of my mistakes

I think of the unlucky things

that have happened to me

and I think of all that I know

in hindsight

I think why this why that why me

at times

But I return to the knowing

that I am only the me I am now

because of all those chapters

This is my life

And I love it in all its misfortune

Mom and Dad

Sometimes I wish things went differently

I wish I made different decisions

As much as I know it "shouldn't"

be on me

I want to retire you both

You are both my responsibility

because of what you have given me

Life, love, everything

I know it's not just about money

It's about love too

But Mom

I know the best gift I can give you

is freedom

Freedom to quit your job

And I take you out for breakfast

at a restaurant with outside seating

And we hear birds chirping and leaves swaying in the wind

There is just peace and nothing else

How does that sound?

All I think about is money

At work, at home, and wherever

I spend money

I think too much of the past

I think too much of the future

But sadly I think too little of the present

At least for the sake of the present.

When I think of the present moment

It's always for the sake of the future

All this worrying for a time

that isn't guaranteed

For a life

I may never have

I'm afraid of dying before reaching my full potential.

I'm in the midst of greatness,

Of living, fighting, loving, breathing

Too focused on progression

I forget at times of gratitude

I forget I can lose things too

Lose time, people, the peace I have now

War is still present in the world

Abuse, suffering killing of innocent

animals, the pigs cows chickens goats

and all the rest, other humans

What if I die before doing all the good I can in this world?

It's out of my control, I focus

on what I can do today

That's all I can ever do
