these notebooks of pain and heartache, of passion and love, are filled with life
the struggles that make life worth living
the moment is all that counts
one day I'll look back at this and laugh
wondering why I worried so much
then I'll realize it was all for the moment
everything is important at the moment
all is sacred at the moment
all thoughts are all-consuming at the moment
the moment never leaves us
it is always there
driving us on, challenging our existence
don't let it bring your demise
go with it and suck every ounce out of life
this is the one chance you'll get
don't let it bring regret
let the moment forever be your life
