"Did You Live?"

Finally you care
Finally your world’s disappeared
Finally your life is done
Finally your goals are achieved

But what if…
You never achieved your goals
You never got to express yourself
You never graduated
You never took your first step
You never told your mom you loved her

If so, how did you live?
How was your life interesting?

And you thought life after death
Actually happened.
Once you’re dead,
You’re dead - for life.

So I ask you this in all respect
Did you live??

In summing up one's life, another measure of it's success, or failure to succeed, is
how one's life has affected others.

Very thought-provoking.
