"Man is mortal, this is true. And that applies to women, too.

To each of us, to those we love, And to our dearest friends, At some point human life begins, And at some point it ends.

We don't know when. Life is dispensed In differing amounts. But it is not how LONG we lived — It's HOW we lived that counts.

Death, like life, is natural, And not to be afraid of. If you love life, guard well your time — for time's the stuff life's made of."

Hang on to your life .When you are born there is a thread you hold on to . It takes you through things that change only it doesn't change . People ask you what you are pursuing and you stop and tell them about the thread . As long as you hold on to it you can't get lost . Tragedies happen people get hurt and even die . You get old and suffer . Nothing you can do can stop time from unfolding . You don't ever let go of the thread . Author unknown .
