The decision to live to the fullest is a celebration of transience of the present moment. All that remains is a heart broken by how deeply we can love. A sore body from how much we want to win. Our paths are thorny. The scars are eternal. They never let us forget what we went through. They proudly show who we are. They make us stronger for where we are headed. And that's why we are such beautiful beings - fragile and indomitable.
