Just Keep Swimming

If there were an infinite number of lines on an infinitely expanding plane, positioned in every direction, each line would intersect with an infinite number of other lines, yet it would still never meet every line that exists on the plane.

Imagine each of these lines as a human. We are met with infinite possibilities in our life, yet there are some things which we are moving parallel to. There are some people we will never meet, some things we will never do, some places we will never go. Yet, should that stop us from continuing forward?

With every breath, every step, and every word, we are moving forward into the future, an irreversible truth that can be embraced with either open arms or closed minds. Even if you look at your future with no hope or expectations, it is still going to happen. And, despite the desire by some to live forever, life is still going to end. But, unless you've already died, you still have a future ahead of you. You have many things to look forward to, and many things to do and see. Go into your future with high expectations. It is possible to find happiness in every moment, if you desire to see it there.
