An Honest Philosophy


I remember being told that life is made out of thousands of intertwined instances, choices that yield changes, and before you know it, it’s all over. The people you met, the days you laughed, you cried, feeling every possible emotion on the spectrum of human capacity. And now, tonight, your collection of expressions will be complete. 
I remember being told to live in the moment. But, can one soul raise their hand and give me an honest to god answer of what that means? We preach it from our veins, with the words flowing effortlessly off of our tongues. But what does it really truly mean? We’re always living, breathing, moment after moment. I think what they’re trying to tell us is that you have to juice the substance out of it. 
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. 
But when God gives you life, make substance.
