that is life...

had a cousin who passed away in a road accident.
He was 24.

either.....you die at a very young age, or you live long enough to watch your friends and family die. sometimes life is just like that.

Maybe it isn't about living or dying.
maybe we are just too focused on our lives or too focused on who died.

maybe it is not about us living till 94 or dying at 24, perhaps it is all about how you finally go!

it's about what we were able to do till then.....

'So do I,' said Gandalf, and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.
