To Live
I wish so deeply to live all of life
To see everywhere there is to see
To go everywhere there is to go
To do everything there is to be done
But one cannot do such a thing
There is too much out there to take in
One can never try everything the world has to offer
This great, beautiful, magnificent world we get the privilege of being a part of
There will always be something you never got in life
Just don't waste all your life trying to do it all
You'll look back and realize that you missed what really mattered in the end;
The people and places and things that you had and hold so dearly
