It's Happening - get with It, or get left behind.

I spent a little bit of Sunday bonding with Dex again - we watched the rather sad Liverpool match, but I had a rather pleasant time. As I left, I couldn't help but think to myself, "this isn't going to last forever." Things change, people change, life changes...and there's nothing any of us can do about it. And so, I've learnt to savour the moments before they disappear. People may not last, but memories last forever. My parents wonder why I'm not just content to sit around and let life go on, it's because I don't want to be an extra in my own story. I want to reach the end of the road or whatever, and be able to look back and say, "What an incredible journey!" And even if I don't get that chance of a backward glance, even if my story has to abruptly end without the happy ending, I don't want to go out with a few meagre lines to my name - I want to have written chapters and chapters and chapters of experiences - I want to have milked life for every moment that it's worth.
