Ephemeral

Life…our very existence is ephemeral…from the moment of our birth none of us know how long or short will be our time upon this Earth. Every person alive today is but one solitary leaf…whose stay upon the tree of life is relatively brief. We never know if we’ll survive a harsh winter or a simple summer squall…we have no idea throughout the years in what season we will fall. Knowing this, however, should make our mission in life quite clear… to try and bring as much joy and happiness into our world while we all are here. To discover what we have to offer… and once discovered…to go out in the world and give it… not to waste a moment of our ephemeral life… but to get out there and live it.
