Something I came across
Jeff April 21st, 2007
I was having a look through a bunch of old files on my computer this afternoon and came across this quote that I wrote down while I was traveling. It was in the first hostel I stayed at, in a book that the guests wrote stuff in. It isnt word for word but was the best I could remember at the time. I liked it because a lot was said in just a few sentences…
Don’t live your life conforming to rules laid out by our society and the media. Write your own script, your own lines… You only have one life to live, one chance at every day. Don’t try to fill a role you have set up for yourself, worrying about what others think, giving strangers so much power over you life as to influence you in how you live the one life you have been given. Every moment is a gift from above as we are not owed anything and should be treasured.
These words, like many others you have read before, are now yours to do with what you want to.
