Today I found out that my new friend is dying of an unknown disease. He accepts it. He is alive and embracing the now; achieving his dreams and publishing as much quality work as he can, to pass on to his son. He told me all this this morning. And all I could think was, "Okay."

What to make of this life when even death fails to motivate. For the love of life, live. Be the example. Lead the way on your own path. To hell with the rest; they are not your responsibility -- they are your responsibility, but only by following your own heart can you ever hope to inspire anyone else.
