All of us have been dying, hour by hour, since the moment we were born, realizing this, will allow all things to be placed in their proper perspective. Sometimes we clutch the past so tightly to our chest that it leaves our arms too full to embrace the present. 

Live for today, take your eyes and your heart off of what you lost and embrace all that you have gained, this is your life and yours alone, you can live the life others think is best for you, or you can create your own path filled with the decisions you made on your own account. .
