On The Way

We may all take different routes, but we’re all heading in the same direction

We’re all destined to end up in the same place

At that same moment in time.

We may live out different stories, but we’re all going the same way.

And that’s the simple truth.

It’s the only reality that really matters

A single moment in time, that comes to define everything

Some will march valiantly towards it

Making every moment count

While others will cower and delude themselves

Wasting it all away by denying and trying to delay the inevitable.

It's worthwhile to keep reminding yourself,

That in the end, it’s doesn’t really matter so much how you die -

Because we all die.

But what does matter is how you lived.

Because not everybody lives, despite being alive.
