“The saying is, life is short, but what if it's not? But if life is short, is this how you would like to spend your last days? And if life is long, is this how you want to spend 50, 60, or 70 years? Being ashamed? Being quiet? Hoping no one notices you? Not telling the truth? Walking around heavy? If I die in my sleep tonight, God forbid, I am happy with how I've lived my life. I've lived it truthfully.” IfsWantYearsLongLastsLife IsDiesSleepWalkingQuietHeavyAshamedTelling The TruthTonightWhat IfLife Is ShortLast DayBeing Quiet Author:Karrine Steffans
“I am only about half alive - a large part of my strength is consumed in sitting up or walking. My nervous system is a shattered wreck, and I am absolutely bored & listless save when I come upon something which peculiarly interests me. However - so many things do interest me, & interest me intensely, in science, history, philosophy, & literature; that I have never actually desired to die, or entertained any suicidal designs, as might be expected of one with so little kinship to the ordinary features of life.” LittlesPhilosophyMightDiesLiteratureInterestHalfAliveDesignWalkingOrdinarySittingExpectedNervousBoredFeaturesSuicidalConsumedWrecksShatteredNervous SystemKinshipSitting Up Author:H.
