The Random Day Perspective:

All this struggle, just for a life to end on a random day. -Popular Proverb

We wake up early. We work. We worry. We chase. We sacrifice... One ordinary day, without warning, it all stops. Not on a dramatic movie scene... Just... a random Tuesday. -The Disguise

Your death will come on an ordinary day, in the middle of unfinished plans, and the world will continue without you. -Sannata

Everything you worried about, everything you sacrificed for... It all ends on a random day. And the world keeps spinning like you were never here. -Draft Era

All of these just to die someday. But until then, I'm still here. Still feeling. -Mau

Embracing the Present:

If it all ends on a random day, then make sure today isn't wasted. -The Disguise

Only when you accept that one day you'll die can you let go, and make the best out of life. And that's the big secret. -Chuck Palahniuk

Death not merely ends life, it also bestows upon it a silent completeness... -Arthur Schopenhauer

I have come to know that it is an important thing to keep in mind... simply because only with the honest knowledge that one day I will die can I ever truly begin to live. -Brian Andreas

Finding Your Worth:

No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they'd die for. -Martin Luther King Jr.

Maybe that's all any of us are doing, trying to leave a little proof that we were alive before we weren't. And maybe that has to be enough. -Mau
