it keeps us alive.
shallow, or heavy, or sharp.
so many people take the simple action for granted.
they never know how precious life is until one of five things occur.
1. they are terminally ill.
2. they witness a death.
3. they save a life.
4. their life is saved.
5. they know exactly how the person they loved died.
everything in moderation, i suppose.
some people are meant to save lives.
others are meant to simply... disappear.
but, perhaps we inhale the things we know can kill us in order to remember that we're alive.
what a shame.
