The First Day of the Rest of Your Life

today is the first day of the rest of your life
live it
kill it
end it
save it
enrich it
change it
paint it

no

today is the last day of the beginning of your life
every day is a clock
tick tick tick-ing away
and no one knows if the clock will reset or just stop completley
live with no boundaries
speak your mind
reach out to everyone
make life better :)
