Friday Making The Most of Life
“Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.”
-James Dean
It's a very nice sentiment, but it can be hard to put into practice. I know I've fallen into a routine more than once -- just l-letting the days pass by as if they're go on forever. And before I came to Secundus, I don't know -- no, that's not quite fair. I had a few big dreams, I just -- thought that was all they would be. Dreams.
I think I've gotten a little better now that I'm here, though. I have moments of routine, but it's a much nicer routine, at least. I don't think I'd regret it if I happened to die after a good day at the shop, or visiting Wonderland Park. And I'm actually making some progress toward some of my dreams being a reality. That clockwork butterfly is coming along very nicely (though I've had to rethink my first choice of metal for the wings. Too heavy.)
