Life is too precious to hide away, too short to not forgive, too important to throw away. Regardless if you believe in reincarnation or not, some people only have one life to live and it is best not to waste it. Not now, not ever. Whether you have many lives ahead of you or if you only have one. Never waste it. I was blind, for far to long, but now I see it clearly, we all have a gift, the gift of life. For all my life I have hidden behind a wall, afraid of people, of authority and even though I have grown I still hide. When I am afraid, I lie. When I hurt, I sleep. When I am questioned, I get angry. Family and love are everything. Never let something stop you from being a family, because that wound will never heal. Never think that you can’t love or be loved. As I once said, when I was five, “Everyone is made of love, they just don’t know it.” Even the cruelest bastard and the coldest murderer are made of love, they have only lost sight of it. Even those who have made others mad, are still made of love. Whether you are like me, and you have memories of things that you haven’t done yet you know for certain that it was you, or you simply have a belief that you hold dear, don’t waste this life. You were given this gift, now go live. Live. Live! Live this wonderful, glorious life.
Beautifully stated.
If I may speak in counterpoint:
Living how you want or choose isn't waste. The cruelest bastard and the coldest murderer are responsible for their own "forgetfulness"; others are only responsible for protecting themselves and others from them.
