Life is fragile and an end comes for us all. But whether that end
is labeled as mysterious, ironic, tragic, coincidental or
altogether unremarkable, is something for those that survive us
to decide. The path of life through the wilderness of our choices
can be both rocky and smooth, so look where you're going because
others will remember where you've been.

Tonight's Quote:

“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives
fully is prepared to die at any time.”

— Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne Clemens)
